A three-time Academy Award winner, he is best known as the animation director on Who Framed Roger Rabbit -- for which he won two Academy Awards -- and as the director of his unfinished feature film The Thief and the Cobbler . His work on the short film A Christmas Carol earned him his first Academy Award. He was also a film title sequence designer and animator.
