He was an Advance Ambassador of the Ringling Readers program and also an instructor for Clown College Japan.
He spent many seasons with both Culpepper Merriweather Circus and Kelly Miller Circus making families around the country laugh.

Circus Vargas: Clown Walkaround


Members of the Circus Vargas Clown Alley perform walkarounds around 1987. I can spot George Clyatt, Scott Parker, Chris Green, Marty T. Clown, and Lorenzo (last name I don't know). Aside from that, I have no idea who the rest are. Heck, even people that were in the Alley couldn't ID them for me!
