- Gilvezan has penned two books about working as a performer in Hollywood: the fiction novel Drowned in the Grenadine and the autobiographical Bumblebee and Me, the latter specifically about his days recording The Transformers and the fandom. In it, he revealed that the original spelling of his surname was "Giulvezan" (pronounced akin to "Giuseppe"), but he had to drop the "u" due to others having difficulty pronouncing it.
