About Kevin Curran (writer)
Kevin Patrick Curran (February 27, 1957 – October 25, 2016) was an American television comedy writer. He wrote for Late Night with David Letterman, Married... with Children, and The Simpsons. He was also the voice of Buck the Dog on Married... with Children (except for several episodes in which Buck was voiced by Cheech Marin). In the sixth-season episode "Psychic Avengers", Curran appeared briefly onscreen during the end sequence where, thanks to Madam Inga's curse, the Bundy family is turned into chimpanzees and Buck is turned into a human, in which Curran is credited as "Buck the Man" above the usual final credited character of "Buck the Dog". In addition to writing episodes and voicing Buck, Curran served as a story editor and supervising producer on Married... with Children. He also wrote for Late Night with David Letterman for which he won three Emmys. At The Simpsons, Curran won three additional Emmys and was nominated in 2010 for a Humanitas Prize for his episode "The Greatest Story Ever D'ohed". He won a WGA Award for The Earth Day Special.
