- About My Library
- William D. (Bill) Lee (1924 - 2008) was a retired teacher and coach in the Sarasota FL County school system for 45 years. He was administrative director of the Sarasota Sailor Circus (and an icon of the Amateur Circus) for 38 years where he was an inspiration to generations of circus kids.
The circus was originally part of the Sarasota County School System and is world renowned.
Bill also ran a professional Shrine Circuses in the summers for several years.
He is pictured to the right inside the Sailor Circus Bigtop with his daughter Dottie and his grandson Chris, who performed in the Sailor Circus during the 1980s.
