Ink & Paint: The Women of Walt Disney's Animation by Mindy Johnson

4.0

I cannot even the imagine the amount of work that went into making this piece. My few and far between complaints were really about organization and consistency, but gosh what a read! It was a feat in length and in attempting to hurdle the technical jargon in particular, but the stories told and obstacles surmounted by these women surpass any hiccups in style or writing that I could see. It’s a commitment read for sure, but if you have time or read a bit here and there, it’s definitely worth it! It was also refreshing to read the words of an author who clearly respects the work, the women, and the company. I truly believe Walt Disney was a pioneer for women’s rights in his company and did the best he knew how at the time with the upmost respect for these women and their talents. It was nice to see that reflected in this work. Thanks for all the information!! Hopefully one day, I will meet (and is it too presumptuous to say join?!?!) the team responsible for preserving the masterful works of art these women helped to create.
