Mark Allen Mothersbaugh (/ˈmʌðərzbɔː/; born May 18, 1950) is an American musician and composer. He came to prominence in the late 1970s as co-founder, lead vocalist, and keyboardist of the new wave band Devo, whose "Whip It" was a top 20 single in the US in 1980, peaking at No. 14, and which has since maintained a cult following. Mothersbaugh was one of the primary composers of Devo's music. In addition to his work with Devo, Mothersbaugh has made music for television series, films, and video games via his production company, Mutato Muzika. He composed the music for the 13-year run of the animated series Rugrats and its three related theatrical films. He has created film scores for Wes Anderson and for Marvel Comics films. As a solo musician, Mothersbaugh has released four studio albums: Muzik for Insomniaks, Muzik for the Gallery, Joyeux Mutato, and The Most Powerful Healing Muzik in the Entire World. In 2004, he received the Richard Kirk Award at the BMI Film and TV Awards for his contributions to film and television music. In 2008, Mothersbaugh received an honorary doctorate of humane letters from Kent State University, his alma mater.

A biopic about Theodor Seuss Geisel, also known as "Dr. Seuss," an author and cartoonist who became known for writing bestselling books for beginning readers. Many of his works are known for their nonsense words, rhymes, and unusual-looking creatures. His titles include, "The Cat and the Hat," "How the Grinch Stole Christmas," "Green Eggs and Ham," "Mr. Brown Can Moo," "The Lorax," "The Sneetches," and "Horton Hears a Who!" He used "Dr." as a pen name, referencing his incomplete doctorate degree. The movie will focus on from when he first became an author to when he wrote his 1986 book for all ages titled, "You’re Only Old Once! A Book for Obsolete Children." Even though he wrote books for children, Seuss himself never HAD children of his own. "You make them, I'll amuse them." He would say.
