Produktbeschreibung

Winsor McCay: His Life and Art is now back in print in a new expanded and revised edition. This classic biography, long unavailable, chronicles the life and times of one of America's most influential masters of both the comic strip and the animated cartoon, Winsor McCay (1867-1934). From his Michigan childhood and his early career as an illustrator in the Midwest, McCay rose to international fame at The New York Herald, as the creator of the innovative and imaginative comic strips Dreams of the Rarebit Fiend and Little Nemo in Slumberland. McCay built upon the popularity of his comic strips by creating more than a dozen beautifully crafted animated films, such as Little Nemo (1911) and Gertie the Dinosaur (1914), which are among the earliest examples of personality animation.For this updated edition, John Canemaker incorporates new details about McCay's life and colorful career, for an insightful look at an American original.
