Farewell...

... Art Stevens, Disney Animator.

Stevens began work at Walt Disney Studios in 1939. According to an AP Story: "Stevens applied for a job at Disney in 1939 after he learned that Walt Disney planned an animated feature based on one of his favorite stories, "Alice in Wonderland," which eventually came out in 1951."

Stevens directed "The Fox & The Hound" and "The Rescuers".

He also worked on such classics as "Fantasia", "Peter Pan", "Bambi", "101 Dalmations", "Mary Poppins", "Robin Hood" and more!

Stevens died from a heart attack at his home at the age of 92.
