(W) Bill Plympton, David B. Levy (A) Bill Plympton
The only modern animator to personally hand-draw every frame in all of his work, Academy Award-nominee Bill Plympton eschewed a career in the high-paying but soul-crushing Hollywood animation industry to explore his own creativity as an independent filmmaker. His instantly recognizable and unique style catapulted him into the pop culture stratosphere and cemented his place in the pantheon of animation greats. Independently Animated chronicles Plympton's life from his childhood of Saturday morning cartoons to his most current and certainly adult-skewing animation. Foreword by Terry Gilliam.
