Gene Deitch

What a great Oscar winning director/animator and a seemingly great person.

Gene Deitch has written a few books and one is available online for free at AWN entitled, How to Succeed in Animation. This may be old news to some of you but it's new to me. It's a very entertaining read, so far, I am only half way through it right now but I am loving it and reading it every chance I get.



Also, I found Gene's official site and read a fantastic but true story about Gene and one of my favorite blues artists ever, John Lee Hooker. If you want to read a great story take a look.
