Milt Kahl

Born: 1909-03-22 • San Francisco, California, USA

One of Disney's Nine Old Men and considered the finest draughtsman of the Disney animators. He would often refine the characters sketches from Bill Peet with the ideas of Ken Anderson. For many years the final look for the characters in the Disney films were designed by Kahl, in his angular style inspired by Ronald Searle and Picasso.
