Tom Ray was a great Artist, Animator and Animation Director. He loved art, and his traditional animation. He started his career as an Apprentice Inbetweener at Leon Schlesinger Studios in 1937. He animated for MGM, Warner Brothers, Walt Disney, Hanna-Barbera, Chuck Jones, Sony Studios, Universal Studios and more! His 73 years in the animation industry brought him the joy, the fun, the knowledge and the experience unsurpassed by so many in practically every other field.
Stay tooned for the autobiography that he began writing that long time ago... and that he and his wife, Brenda, were completing just before his death:
