Important ANIMATOR'S NOTE: Some MILT KAHL character animations of Professor Ludwig Von Drake, which we’ve discussed before, are re-used in this show. Ward Kimball (Animator of Von Drake in this segment as well as the segment where Emotion Meets Reason - the characters representing "Emotion" both for the lady and the gent are animated by Ward) Born March 4, 1914, in Minneapolis; joined Disney in 1934 as an inbetweener and rose to become one of the legendary “Nine Old Men.” Known for vivid caricature, bold staging, and outlandish energy—he brought to life Jiminy Cricket (Pinocchio), Tweedledee & Tweedledum, the Cheshire Cat, and Lucifer the Cat, among others. Directed Oscar-winning shorts: Toot, Whistle, Plunk and Boom (1953; first CinemaScope cartoon), and It’s Tough to Be a Bird (1969). Crafted groundbreaking television specials on space—Man in Space, Man and the Moon, Mars and Beyond—fueling public interest in exploration. Off-screen, he was a passionate railroad hobbyist (Grizzly Flats Railroad) and Dixieland jazz trombonist, leading the Firehouse Five Plus Two band. Retired in the early 1970s, later consulted for Walt Disney Imagineering (e.g., EPCOT’s World of Motion), and passed away in 2002. *Why this matters:* This is a valuable animation study piece—especially for students and professionals studying Ward Kimball’s unique style. The “Emotion and Reason” sequence exemplifies his expressive exaggeration, mood characterizing, and rhythmic staging at its finest.
