  1. Ron, many years ago, around 1990, I contacted Walt Disney Studios as a young kid with a new dream. Being a Disney animator. I was fortunate enough to have received a wonderful letter from Bill Matthews. He was very kind and forwarded my letter and interests to some animators. You and Phil Young both wrote me back. I have never been able to tell you how much I appreciated that. You took the time to analyze my drawings, taking tracing paper and drawing correctional elements on top of mine for context. That was the coolest moment for a young kid like me. I thank you so much not only for that letter, but also for all of the fine work you've created for me and millions of others through the films at Walt Disney Studios. All the best...OH: this drawing you are working on looks incredible. Looks a bit like the workings of a mural somewhere. Cheers! Mike Rosado
