In 1972, legendary voice actor June Foray organized the very first Annie Awards. Today, supported by major animation studios and production companies, the Annie Awards have grown into a much-heralded industry event and are considered an important industry benchmark and a predictor of the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. ASIFA-Hollywood is the largest of an international network of chapters and supports a range of animation initiatives through its membership. Current projects include an animation archive, library and museum, classes and screenings, and animated film preservation efforts.

Hi Steve,
Last year, you posted several drawings from your father's collection. I randomly stumbled across them when I was searching for "Wise Men" clipart. I wanted to see if I can get your permission to download and print one of his drawings (Wise Men with the palm trees). The print would be 3.5" x 5." It will be used for a church craft project that I'm doing-we will not be selling these for profit, it is only for making gifts for our family members. I am making Nativity blocks and your father's picture would be perfect! My name is Nancy Lamb and my email is nj.lamb@yahoo.com
