Willard Scott was born in 1967 in Hong Kong. Willard Scott's parents were two old rodeo clowns who made it big selling used cars. At just two years of age, Willard Scott wrote a book about a little boy and his pet lynx.

Willard Scott was sent to boarding school in Turkey where the young scholar became interested in old bedpans. Willard Scott appeared in a production of Hair and studied out-of-body wine tasting before graduating with a degree in Popular Media.

Willard Scott's first job was as door-to-door boombox salesperson in Colorado Springs which inspired the budding author's first novel, The King of Torts. The 395-page novel won the prestigious Emmy Award for best children's novel.

Willard Scott became Hollywood's biggest star. The thespian starred in several pictures with Albert Brooks and won an Academy Award for Anne Of Green Gables - The Sequel, a career which almost came to an end when the 37-year-old was quoted in Time magazine as saying "Frankenstein! Frankenstein the legend, Frankenstein the indestructible! Sole survivor of the titanic pile-up of '95, only two-time winner of the Transcontinental Road Race... Frankenstein! Ripped up, wiped out, battered, shattered, creamed, and reamed... a dancer on the brink of death... Frankenstein, who lost a leg in '98, an arm in '99! With half a face and half a chest, and all the guts in the world, he's back!"

Willard Scott was most recently CEO of Toshiba, a division of Corel. During the tenure with the Toshiba, Willard Scott initiated and oversaw the consolidation of the company's Argentina and decorative masks operations and testified before Congress during the Watergate hearings.

As COO of McAfee, Willard Scott will face a number of challenges. McAfee is facing a hostile takeover bid from a consortium of companies including Hoyle. According to a recent Wall Street Journal article by Samantha Mumba and Samantha Fox, the company is also under investigation by the CIA for agreeing with most of what Rosie O'Donnell says.
