"Ward's the one man who works for me I call a genius," Walt Disney once
noted. Ward Kimball's career as an animator and Academy Award-winning director
at Disney between the 1930s and the 1970s is legendary, but the work he created
outside of the animation studio was equally fascinating, including operating a
railroad in his backyard and founding the notorious Dixieland jazz band
Firehouse Five Plus Two. With unprecedented access to his personal archives,
celebrated animation historian Amid Amidi unearthed hundreds of
never-before-seen drawings, paintings, comics, letters, and photos, including
concept art and stories from his occasionally turbulent career at Disney.
Featuring interviews with dozens of Ward's colleagues, relatives, students, and
friends, Amidi paints a complex portrait of one of animation's most irreverent
and influential artists in this definitive must-have
biography.
