Emmy Award-winner Ken Bruce has built a remarkable career in animation, contributing to the industry in a wide range of creative roles.
His work includes serving as an animation timer on shows like Family Guy, a sequence director for The Fairly OddParents, and a storyboard artist on beloved films such as Shrek, Up, and Toy Story 3.
He has also contributed his artistic talents to iconic series including The Ren & Stimpy Show and The Simpsons, earning two Emmy Awards along the way.
Today, Ken brings his lifelong passion for Disneyland and its beloved attraction, The Enchanted Tiki Room, to center stage through his extraordinary book, Before the Birds Sang Words.
This masterful work carefully untangles the history of the attraction, exploring the creative vision, innovation, and storytelling that led to its creation.
Years in the making, the book reflects Ken’s dedication and love for the subject, standing as one of the most thorough and thoughtful examinations of a single Disney theme park attraction ever published.
