William Barnard Justice was an animator and engineer for The Walt Disney Company. Justice joined Walt Disney Studios as an animator in 1937 and worked on such features as Fantasia, The Three Caballeros, Alice in Wonderland, and Peter Pan. He died in 2011 at age 97.
I got to meet him (I think) in 1991, when he was 77, at the Stay Tooned Gallery in Barrington. He spoke to the audience before the signing. I don't remember anything specific that was said and I know he didn't say anything to me; I was just another person in line. Still...
I wish I had taken better care of this print he signed.
