Spin Again
As an avid collector of board games, Polizzi co-authored a book about vintage games titled Spin Again.
The Simpsons
Polizzi began working on Fox Television's The Simpsons in 1996 as post production supervisor. He became an Animation producer shortly after, and has been nominated for six Primetime Emmy Awards. He has won three.
Boney Island
Frustrated by the lack of family friendly Halloween attractions in the Los Angeles area, Polizzi began to construct a display of his own in the front lawn of his Sherman Oaks, California home. Boney Island was a show, set with a carnival theme, which was mostly composed of animated skeleton parts made from plastic. By the time Boney Island had its last showing in 2007, it had become a large success.
