A Conversation with Stephen Anderson

My buddy Darin Lundberg (X: @DWLundberg) joins me as co-host on this episode for a conversation with animation director and author Stephen Anderson (X: @stevehatguy; Instagram: @stevehatguy). Stephen has had an impressive career at Walt Disney Animation Studios. He most recently has written a book about the history of The Walt Disney Studios called Disney In-Between: The Lost Years 1966-1986, which is a must-read for any serious Disney fan. More information about the book is on the Old Mill Press website. It’s highly recommended by this Disney nerd. A huge thanks to both Darin and Stephen for talking with me.
