I'm a guy who loves Milt's personality and philosophy - and strangely enough, i'm not that big of a Disney fan. Most of the Disney movies i can do without, but i learned to love all that was Milt Kahl from the stories i have read about him(some by way of Richard Williams) and the sketches he left behind.<br />He has a great quote to his credit, in fact, its beyond "great". For me it is the quintessential statement on animation as an art form and I've even memorized it over the years.<br />I've posted it here<br />http://tinyurl.com/2ukzsx<br /><br />^almost every single misstep, ill conceived notion, dangerous bout of bravado, and blunder can be rectified by that statement.<br />There are so many people in this industry who fail to grasp what an animator is, and Milt Kahl spells it out right there. Drawing is merely part of the equation. <br /><br />Thanks again Floyd. Thanks an absolute TON for posting this biography of Milt.

There are so many people in this industry who fail to grasp what an animator is, and Milt Kahl spells it out right there. Drawing is merely part of the equation.

Thanks again Floyd.
