Author Information

"Preston Blair was a native Californian from Redlands. Blair was one of the fine artists of animation. With the Disney Studio, he designed and animated the hippos in ""The Dance of the Hours"" and animated Mickey Mouse in the ""Sorcerer's Apprentice"" (both in Fantasia), parts of Pinocchio, and the segment in Bambi when the owl tell about love in the ""tiwitterpatted"" speech. He was an inventor of interactive TV systems using animation methods to teach reading or to provide full-figure game action that simulates reality--for example, playing tennis with an animated opponent. Blair died in April 1995 at the age of 85."
