WoW, was he mentioned by Kramer in Seinfeld : "Jerry are you blind? He's a writer, he said his name was Saul Bass. Bass, Jerry! Instead of salmon, he went with bass! He just substituted one fish for another!" Can't find precise evidence right now, but seems pretty possible. Interesting. Need to know more about him. Thanks for info )
