Info Sought on 9 Old Men. Animation historian John Canemaker is working on his eighth animation history book, titled Walt Disney's Nine Old Men and the Art of Animation to be published by Hyperion in 2001. It will contain detailed biographical portraits of Les Clark, Frank Thomas, Ollie Johnston, Marc Davis, Ward Kimball, Milt Kahl, John Lounsbery, Eric Larson and Wolfgang Reitherman. The book will also discuss the early Disney animators who influenced "the Nine," such as Ub Iwerks, Norman Ferguson, Fred Moore, Ham Luske, Vladimir Tytla and Grim Natwick, among others. The author would like to hear from anyone who knew or worked with the above animators, especially family members or animation assistants, students and protégés, who can provide stories, anecdotes, tributes, or biographical information about the Nine Old Men.
