Join us for an exclusive conversation with Japanese American artist Willie Ito about his inspiring decades-long career in animation. After Ito and his family were taken from their home in San Francisco and interned at a camp in Utah for Japanese Americans during WWII, he overcame incredible adversity by landing his dream job at The Walt Disney Studios as an animator on Lady and the Tramp (1955).
