O'Connor, Ken (b. 1908) - Never losing his
distinctive native Australian accent, Ken O'Connor came to work at the
Disney Studio in
1935 and soon became one of the company's
premier layout men, with his talents highlighted in
such films as "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs"
and "Lady and the Tramp," and almost a hundred
shorts. One of the primary achievements of his
career was when Walt picked him to do the art
direction for the "Dance of the Hours" sequence in
"Fantasia."
