Career

Rose and friend Joanna Ferrone first developed the character Fido Dido in 1985, after Rose drew him on a cocktail napkin at a restaurant. Ferrone named him "Fido Dido".[2] They later stenciled Fido on T-shirts with the credo: "Fido is for Fido, Fido is against no one".[3] Fido Dido was licensed to PepsiCo in 1988 and appeared on numerous products.

In 1996, Rose created the animated television series Pepper Ann. The series was produced by Walt Disney Television Animation and aired on Disney's One Saturday Morning block, debuting on September 13, 1997, on ABC. Pepper Ann began life as a comic strip created by Rose in the early 1990s for YM magazine.[4] The animated series received popular and critical acclaim and earned numerous awards including Parent's Choice[5] and Girls Inc.[6]

Rose and Ferrone later created the animated television show Angela Anaconda, which aired on Fox Family Channel from 1999 to 2001. Rose was also the voice of Angela. The cut-out animation show also aired on Teletoon in Canada. The show earned Rose numerous awards and nominations, including nominations for Young Artist Award in 2000 and 2001, a Gemini Award in 2000, nominations for Daytime Emmys in 2000 and 2001, a nomination for an Annie Award in 2001, and a nomination for a BAFTA Award in 2002[7]
