After earning a degree in art at Murray State University, I still had
no idea where I was headed. Jobs in the art market were scarce in

Hollywood.

Over the years I've been an effects animator and a storyboard artist for such studios as
Amblimation, Disney and DreamWorks. My updated list of credits are listed here on the
Internet Movie Database Source.
In 1999 I had my first children's book published, Isaac the Ice Cream Truck.

Here's my favorite picture of my dog,
Jackie (October 2, 1991-April 29,
2006), a standard poodle. Those

slippers with an uncanny resemblance.
Jackie makes guest appearances in all
my books.

Here I am in 1999 at a book signing in hometown
Louisville, Kentucky, playing the song from Isaac.
What's an ice cream truck without a song? Lots of
people have asked me how it goes, so I've finally
added an audio file on Isaac's page.
