About this title

Synopsis

Disney Legend Floyd Norman's first book is a wildly funny and insightful look at the inside workings of the animation business. Norman has worked for some of the biggest (and smallest) animation studios in Hollywood from Disney and Pixar to Hanna-Barbera and Tom Carter Productions. During all those years he kept his co-workers laughing with his editorial style cartoons. The book, published in 1992, is the first collection of these cartoon gems unseen since he began drawing them in the 1960s. Watch Walt Disney compare Jungle Book to Batman. See Hanna & Barbera send animation into space, And watch how Micheal Eisner turned the Disney empire upside down. Along with page after page of rare cartoons is a bio of the man recently featured in the documentary FLOYD NORMAN: AN ANIMATED LIFE.
