Antonio Gustin (The Bug Whisperer(TM)) is best known for his live show, Tony's Creepy Crawly Zoo, a traveling live insect show for kids. Tony's Creepy Crawly Zoo, was a dynamic and theatrical show, that visited over a million children in the last two decades and continues today. In 2005, Antonio turned his attention to video and developed the character, The Bug Whisperer(TM). He produced a pilot episode titled, Tales from the Bug Whisperer. He wrote it, filmed it, edited it, and produced it on a budget of less than $5000. It received rave reviews and five international film festival awards.A person of eclectic interests, he is an accomplished martial artist, studied languages and art in college before finally returning to his boyhood obsession with entomology (the study of insects). He is also an avid outdoorsman and enjoys bow hunting, flyfishing, and living in the mountains for weeks at a time. These days, the Bug Whisperer is a self-proclaimed science evangelist. He started the nonprofit organization the Gateway Science Project, which uses insects to excite scientific curiosity in kids. You can catch his show every month at Discovery World Children's Science Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.For more of what is going on today, visit www.creepycrawlyzoo.com
