Former ‘Simpsons’ producer to return to Roanoke College

ROANOKE, Va. (AP) – Roanoke College is getting animated.

Joe Boucher, a former producer for “The Simpsons” and “King of the Hill,” is bringing his creative talent back to his alma mater in his new role as director of student activities and campus center.

The alumnus, who graduated in 1987, left his Los Angeles lifestyle to return to a place that he said has always felt like home – even though he grew up in New York.

He is among Roanoke College’s 16 new professional staff members, who will join 16 new professors for the fall semester that launches Aug. 29 with students’ arrival in Salem. He’s so new he hasn’t had time to hang anything on the walls of his office yet.

“It was time for a change,” Boucher said. “For me, I was kind of burned out on entertainment.”

The former producer and writer used to spend about three to four hours a day in his car battling LA traffic. Now, he and his two children are settling in Salem, and live about eight houses away from the college.
