His first credited appearance was as the background artist for the "Rite of Spring" sequence in "Fantasia". He worked on "Song of the South", "Alice in Wonderland", "Peter Pan", and "Lady and the Tramp". He also went to work on Walt Disney's anthology television series as a background painter and writer in the late 1950s. In the 1950s he became the president of ERA Productions, a small studio which was staffed with animators who had mostly come from Disney after leaving during the strike of 1941, producing and directing animated and live action commercials for the Peterson Company, as well as work for Disney. He later went on to form Unicorn Productions, with which he continued to work on commercials, films, and theme park rides, continuing to consult for Disney into the early 1990s, when he retired.
