Career

While as an artist-illustrator living in The Bronx, New York, he first began his career in animation at the Raoul Barré cartoon studio in 1916, he joined the Fleischer Studio in 1923 where he developed the Koko clown character. Later he moved to Hollywood as an animator and director for the Charles Mintz studio, and then to the Disney Studio, where he remained for the duration of his career, except for a 3-year hiatus from 1948-51 when he pioneered animated TV commercials and created the "Buck O'Rue" comic strip.[1] Some of his most creative work was done in partnership with Joe Grant; examples include Fantasia (story director), Dumbo (screenplay), and several propaganda films to advance the U.S. war effort during World War II. Atypically, Dick and Joe submitted Dumbo to Walt not as a completed storyboard, but as a series of narrative chapters, each ending in a cliff-hanger; this was intended to pique Walt's enthusiasm for the project, and it worked. Dick was at the Disney organization from April 16 1933 to February 28 1973.

Awards and Accomplishments

Given a Mousecar by the Disney Studio in February 1973 at a ceremony attended by a number of his peers.[2]

Accepted the Winsor McCay Award at the Annie Awards in October 1978 and was introduced by Ward Kimball.

On October 10 2007, Huemer's son Dr. Richard P. Huemer accepted the Disney Legends that was awarded in Huemer's name.[3]
