thing for him. David practices live
storytelling, in addition to having
spent over 25 years as an executive,
producer and artist on more than fifteen
major feature animated movies, including Meet
the Robinsons, Mulan, Hercules, Cats
Don’t Dance, An
American Tail and The
Land Before Time. Serving
these days as the Head of Studio
for Starz Animation Toronto, David
is busy getting films like Pirates
Who Don’t
