UL Alum's Work Is All Over TV

This weekends Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon is just the latest in a whole list of TV shows that former Lafayette resident and UL Alum Joe Stewart can claim as his design. Stewart, who graduated from then USL, has gone on to design many television living rooms, awards shows, interview desks and more. He has designed the sets for Tonight Show, the Ellen Degeneres Show, Days of Our Lives, 19 years of MDA telethons, numerous Emmy Award shows (in fact, he won a bunch of Emmys too), primetime specials and more. It's an interesting story and Dave Walker with the Times-Picayune has more. Click here for the Joe Stewart imdb page for a very impressive list of all his work.
