Description

Ward Kimball's career as an animator and director at Disney in the 1940s, 50s and 60s is legendary among fans of animation, and the generation of artist and animators influenced by his work are legion. But the work he created outside of the animation studio was equally significant and, arguably even more fascinating. His substantial artistic output, which is gathered together in this monograph for the first time ever, stretches across a wide swath of artistic territory-from fine art to graphic design to animation to magazine cartoons.
