TaleSpin Animation Talent Tribute
International TaleSpin Voices
TaleSpin Translations Section


Welcome to the first tribute to the men and women behind the series known as TaleSpin. I figured that since the voice talents got their just deserts it was time for the crew to get the same treatment. A lot of people know who Jymn Magon is; however, few know people like James T. Walker or Bob Shellhorn; who worked in the trenches to bring this series forward. This tribute to those people who made this series (and other Disney and non-Disney series) possible. Each credits is listed in pretty much the same way as I did for the Voice Talent Tribute. There is a list of their TaleSpin work; although the main difference is that all of their roles are credited differently (since several members have multiple talents and credits). They are sorted according to episode and most are credited with the people that they worked together with. Then there are the Disney credits that they work with. Note that only their roles are credited and not actual episodes. It would take me too long to record them. Then the Non-Disney credits are issued; with the role that they played in. A total of five credits maximum are recorded for the webpage and more information will be recorded on the additional links present below each summary. Then there is a small summary for each credit listed and a quote from them if need be. You may have noticed that Ginny McSwain, Christopher L. Stone and the animation crews are not on this list. Ginny is in the TaleSpin Voice Talent Tribute (because she worked with the voice talents); Christopher L. Stone's credits and tribute are already done in an editorial I did for him: Christopher L. Stone: The Biggest Unsung Hero in TaleSpin

42nd update (06/15/2020)- Complete update of the page; profiles updated, links updated.

Note: "Total Resume Credits" is based on what IMDB shows. Actual numbers will most likely be (much) higher considering the amount of work that can be credited and uncredited. All soundtrack credits are from VGMDB which contain the credit lists from the Christopher L. Stone TaleSpin Demo CD; which does not include the entire complete number of soundtracks from the series.

Summary: Vic(tor) Cook is an American television director, writer, and producer. Cook is perhaps best known for producing and developing for television the animated television series The Spectacular Spider-Man along with Greg Weisman. As a child, Cook was a fan of a cartoon series Ralph Bakshi created. In Kindergarten, he would draw characters such as Spider-Man and Speed Racer, which were his "touchstones" in his younger years along with Jonny Quest. As an adult, Cook worked on several different animated projects including Atlantis: Milo's Return, Driving Me Crazy, The Legend of Tarzan, Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, Darkwing Duck, and Hellboy: Blood and Iron. Working as a director on Hellboy: Blood and Iron, Cook did not come in until after the initial design for the film's style. Cook was called by Sony Entertainment alongside Greg Weisman to help develop a DVD project about Spider-Man. Both of them wanted to use a style from the early comic book publications of the character that showed him younger, which Cook had never seen done before in any adaption. The idea was reformatted to an animated television series, but they still kept a similar chronicle style where, as Cook describes, "each episode stands alone as its own story, but like the comic book itself it’s a saga. Then each three episodes is a story and those three episodes are what would be on the DVD releases." The original title for the series was The Amazing Spider-Man, based on the comic series of the same name, but by mid-2007 the name was changed to The Spectacular Spider-Man, as well a Spider-Man comic series. Both Weisman and Cook wanted to use the style of Sam Raimi, director of the Spider-Man films, as it had "set the bar" for the fluid movement for Spider-Man. As they were on a specific budget, they wanted to allow the animation to "move" more than anything, giving it simple and stylistic designs. He also looked back on Blood and Iron, which had a "fresh, young, look to it" that appealed to him visually. Cook wanted to make an "iconic" Spider-Man for both new and older generations and "really wanted this to be a two dimensional Spider-man that moved like we’ve never really seen him move in animation before." The Spectacular Spider-Man became very successful in its first season on Kids WB! and entered its second season in America in 2009 on Disney XD. Victor has since moved to Warner Brothers to work on various Scooby Doo OAV's and various painter/scene artist roles. He currently works for Hasbro Studios.

Summary: Back in the early 1980′s when Carter Crocker first began writing for television, the landscape was much different than it is today. Animation was done quickly, inexpensively and often poorly; shows were spit out of the production machine like sausage links, and writers were mere assembly line cogs. It was difficult to rise above the herd and make a name for oneself, but he managed to do it by tackling some of the highest profile brands and making them accessible to the widest possible audience. TaleSpin, The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Darkwing Duck, RoboCop: The Animated Series, The Jungle Book 2 and Barney – those are just a handful of Carter’s extensive career credits. He continues his impressive run with one of 2013′s major hit series, the Disney ratings giant Sofia the First.

Summary: Also credited as Jan Strejan. Not much is known about the cartoonist Jan Green, who drew the syndicated comic strip 'Hey, Swingy!' for General Features between 1964 and 1970. Green launched her strip about the "zany and laughable antics of a typical teen-age girl" on 26 October 1964. The strip also found its way to Québec, where is appeared under the title 'Julie' in La Presse in 1970-1971. By 1970, the US feature secretly went into reruns, and when readers started to complain, the syndicate stated that the author was ill. The strip disappeared from circulation shortly afterwards. Jan Green has also worked as a cartoonist for Teen magazine, and is presumably also the Jan Green who did storyboard art and story direction for animated cartoon series from the 1960s throughout the 1990s. Green's credits include Disney TV series like 'Quack Pack', 'Aladdin', 'Bonkers', 'Goof Troop', 'Darkwing Duck', 'The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh' and 'DuckTales', as well as Hanna-Barbera's 'Paw Paws', 'The New Scooby-Doo Mysteries', 'Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo', 'The New Scooby and Scrappy-Doo Show', 'The Ri¢hie Ri¢h/Scooby-Doo Show', 'The Biskitts', 'Jeannie', 'The Kwicky Koala Show', 'Challenge of the Superfriends' and 'The Amazing Chan and the Chan Clan', DePatie Freleng's 'Return to the Planet of the Apes', 'Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends' and 'What's New, Mr. Magoo?' and shows like 'Fantastic Voyage' (Filmation), 'Alvin & the Chipmunks' (Ruby-Spears Productions) and 'G.I. Joe: The Revenge of Cobra' (Sunbow Productions). Jan Green passed away on July 17th, 2017.

Summary: Also known as Warren "William" Greenwood. He used to do an insane strip called "Space Dog" for the underground "Cocaine Comix". The first strip of "Space Dog", is about the intrepid canine explorer hauling a shipment of coke across the galaxy with his half naked girlfriend. It had nudity and a satiric/approving attitude toward drug use and it's everything underground comics were back then: dangerous and fun and just plain weird. Since then he's worked a few odd storyboarding jobs and stuff - he wrote for "Alien Racers" and did storyboarding for "TMNT".

Summary: John Kimball is a second-generation animator, director, and designer in the L.A. animation industry. Born in 1941, John was surrounded by jam sessions and art classes from an early age. His father, you see, was Ward Kimball, and something of a Renaissance man, being a professional musician and illustrator above and beyond his day job as a directing animator on a string of Disney animated features. John Kimball returned to the Disney Company in 1987, during the formative years of a new corporate division called "Disney Television Animation." . Over the next decade and a half, Mr. Kimball worked on a string of TV Animation projects, everything from episodics to direct-to-video features. (He worked, for example, on the first sequel to the theatrical feature Aladdin.). Over time, John grew more and more frustrated with his work at Disney TVA, because the division limited the responsibilities of directors. His last gig before retirement, directing episodes of Nickelodeon's Chalk Zone.

Summary: Larry Latham; like many who join the field of animation had a life-long interest in the field. Born in Oklahoma City; Larry is a graduate of the University of Oklahoma with a degree in motion picture production. Larry had some stints as a sound recordist, production manager, still photographer, editor and was even an actor until 1979. He began his career by being in a training course for assistant animators at Hanna-Barbera. Two months later; he was hired as an apprentice at storyboard design by the studio and he worked there for eight years. He went from artist to producer and contributed to such shows as The Snorks, The Smurfs, newer versions of the Flintstones, Richie Rich and Scooby-Doo among them. He left Hanna-Barbera and the animation field for a few years to train as a director for the American Film Institute (AFI). He returned to Disney in 1989 and made a huge impact as a director for TaleSpin's pilot episode "Plunder and Lightning" which went on to win one of TaleSpin's two Emmy noiminations. He also worked on Bonkers (the shorts; not the tv show bearing the same name) and Raw Toonage before leaving in 1993 to become a freelance director and storyboard artist working on the American Tail sequel, Babes in Toyland and The Tick. He was also known for his interactive work on CD-ROM from Electronic Arts and worked on interactive productions such as Wing Commander Academy, "Mr. Zickerfoose", "Galloping Tintypes" and "Turbo Math 3D". He is not related to Moondog Spot from professional wrestling in anyway.

"Quite simply; we wanted real acting...That's why we cast real actors, not cartoon voices." - Larry Latham On The Cast.

Summary: Eric Lewald graduated from UT in 1976 with one of the first BAs in Cinema Studies (put together through the College Scholars program).His Scholars thesis consisted of devising and teaching a film appreciation course within the UT "honors" department. Immediately after graduation, Eric and fellow College Scholar Glenn Morgan produced a low-budget feature film, "Incoming Freshmen," which was shot in and around UT, with a cast and crew made up almost entirely of UT students. The completed film was sold to Cannon Films and was released world-wide in 1979. After work on a couple more independent movies, Eric moved to Los Angeles in the early 80s and found his niche as a writer/showrunner in television. His breakthrough came with the sale of a story idea to Hanna-Barbera Productions which was co-written by yet another UT College Scholar, John Loy. Since then Eric has written or supervised the writing of nearly 500 half-hour television episodes, primarily in animation. The studios he has worked for include Disney, Universal, Warner Brothers, MGM, and Twentieth Century Fox, and the series he has supervised have appeared on all of the major television networks. His first major supervisory position was on the animated "Beetlejuice" series for Fox. That led to Eric's being hired to develop and run the 76-episodes of "X-Men: The Animated Series,"a number-one rated series that had two more UT College Scholars -- Mark Edens and Michael Edens -- as its principal writers. Other action series, like "Street Fighter," for the USA Network, "Gargoyles," for ABC, and "RoboCop," at MGM, followed. Eric returned to live-action writing as the supervising producer of the series "Young Hercules," for Universal, a 50-episode companion piece to the more adult "Hercules" and "Xena" series of the late 90s. After over 15 years in the production side of television, in 2001 Eric took a four-year stab at the executive side as Senior Vice-President, Creative Affairs, for a medium-sized production house, DIC Entertainment ("Madeline," "Inspector Gadget," etc.). There he oversaw the contributions of many of the same writers and artists that he had worked with in the past. On the side, Eric and two other UT grads, Glenn Morgan and Bill Nation, own and run the nationally recognized motorcycle dealership, Pro Italia Motors, which can be seen in the "Day in the Valley" episode of the HBO series "Entourage." He is the husband of Juila Jane Lewald (Julia Jane Roberts).

At Sam Raimi’s Renaissance Films, they supervised the writing on all 50 episodes for the Hercules/Xena spin-off Young Hercules, starring Oscar-nominee Ryan Gosling. For Bonnie Hammer at USA Network they developed and ran Streetfighter, the top animated series on the network. Their RoboCop: Alpha Commando resurrected the RoboCop franchise, and Exo Squad, whose first year Eric supervised, became Universal’s number one animated action series. Julia’s Skeleton Warriors series was a hit on CBS. The Lewalds most recently were developers/showrunners for the first successful 3D-CGI animated action-adventure series, Dream Defenders, for Singapore’s Tiny Island Productions, which premiered in September, 2011, as the top hit on the Sony-Discover-Imax 3D cable network, 3Net.

Summary: Born in Detroit, Michigan on December 7th, 1949. Known as a fan of "Omaha the Cat Dancer" and furry-type stories; Jymn Magon began work as a music producer and song writer for Mickey Mouse Disco in the late 1970's. Along with Gary Krisel; Jymn started work in Walt Disney Television Animation in 1984 with Disney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears as a writer, supervising producer and story editor and pieced together Esiner's idea with Art Villeto. He also wrote several scripts for such DTVA shows as Winnie The Pooh, Ducktales and wrote the pilot for Chip & Dale's Rescue Rangers. He is known for putting TaleSpin together in just three days back in 1988 along with another screenwriter Mark Zaslove when TaleSpin was approved. He also went on to write episodes for Goof Troop and Quack Pack (his episode writing was quite good; although I think he's a better leader than writer) . He left Disney in 1996 to work on serveral Casper sequels as a writer and a few Christmas shows. He did try a hand in freelance writing for Mouseworks and House of Mouse before becoming an independent writer outright. In the fall of 1998; Jymn Magon visited the Unofficial Kit Cloudkicker Homepage and wrote a counter editorial to my profile on Kit. He continues to work as a writer for various projects. Jymn now works for Gigglebug Entertainment in Finland, along with Nick Jr. and Disney XD working on the CGI Pac-Man & The Ghostly Adventures show. Other works include: Heroes Of The City, Lalaloopsy, Sam Sumo, Time Leaper, Khuda-Yana, Gigglebug, Lili & Lola, Paper Dinosaurs, Leo & The Pisa Gang, among many others.

"TaleSpin was probably the best series I worked on...It's not your typical sort of animated television program. There's something here that I think touches a sort of 'fantasy nerve' in people & they say: Wow, that's diffrent! I'm gonna watch that show!" - Comment On TaleSpin In General.

"We're very excited about the animation technology. When you see the plane come zooming towards you, it's quite a trill"- Comment On TaleSpin Being The First DTVA Show To Use Computers For Animating The Airplanes.

Summary: Known as Bruce M. Morris (Born 1958) and raised in Oahu, Hawaii on Kaneohe Marine Corps base. Bruce Morris has been successful in telling tales with a visual acuity for close to two decades. He recently worked with Disney Feature Animation on "The Princess and the Frog." He's worked for Disney as a story artist on Pixar's "Finding Nemo" and as a visual development artist on "The Little Mermaid," and worked as a freelance producer and director for DreamWorks and Warner Bros. Afraid of anything that smacked of real work, Mr. Morris learned to draw and how to tell stories visually. This launched his career at the Walt Disney Studios as an animator, and he subsequently used his unique visuals and storytelling ability to get into the Disney Animation Story Department. Believing firmly in the “Poetry of visuals” and the “Character of dialogue”, to date he has been a key writer and visual storyteller on over fourteen animated features including The Great Mouse Detective, The Little Mermaid, Pocahontas, Hercules, Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron, Finding Nemo, Curious George, Planet 51, and The Princess and the Frog. In addition to his feature work, Bruce has written, produced and directed for animated television series and is currently working on the young adult fantasy book cycle Dimitri’s Garden and writing an animated feature, Betty 99. He is an alumni and past professor of Story Development for California Institute of the Arts and a member of the Animation Writers of America and the Motion Picture Academy of Arts and Sciences.

There are no other credits at this time.

Animation Debut: TaleSpin (1990) – Writer.
DTVA Debut: TaleSpin (1990) – Writer.
Most Recent Credits: TaleSpin (1990) – Writer.
Total Resume Credits: 1 Writer Credit. (Does not include the number of comic books he written which may be in the hundreds; mostly for Donald Duck & Uncle Scrooge comics.)

Summary: Born Keno Don Hugo Rosa in Louisville, Kentucky on June 29th, 1951; Don Rosa is is an American comic book writer and illustrator known for his stories about Scrooge McDuck, Donald Duck and other characters created by Carl Barks for Disney comics, such as The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck. He wrote three scripts for TaleSpin; only two made it to air and it was given as a retirement gift to him.

"'TaleSpin' was an interesting show -- it was based on old adventure movies of the 1930’s which was certainly one of my interests! I soon was getting enthusiastic about giving it my best shot. I even did storyboards for my own scripts for free, trying to make myself valuable. A screenwriter who can also do his own storyboards was just as rare as a comic writer who can draw his own scripts. It turned out that I wrote the first two episodes of the show that were animated in Korea or France (Disney no longer did their own animation), though they were not the first episodes broadcast. The two episodes were 'It Came from Beneath the Seaduck' (a parody of 1950’s giant-monster movies), and 'I Only Have Ice for You' (they liked puns as story titles). I recall that the first script was animated almost exactly the way I wrote it, while the second one was altered totally. But the producers were very gracious; I had written that second script based on the story synopsis they had given me, and they later said that they needed to see that synopsis in script form to realize that it would not work, so I still received full pay and a good review." - Don Rosa, Don Rosa Collection Book Set.

His parents were famous in their own ways; his father (Norman) was the creator of the first 3D comic book and Joan Howard was the daughter of Three Stooges' very own Moe Howard. Jeffrey began his career as a child actor in motion pictures; including two Three Stooges films which were produced and directed by his father at the time. Six years later; he has wrote a screenplay for the final Three Stooges movie; but it was shelved because the replacement for Larry Fine demanded a huge limo that the producers couldn't afford. While studying art and getting is major in Motion Pictures & Television from UCLA; Jeffrey inked comic books for Western Publishing Company (Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Coyote & Roadrunner, Daffy Duck among them). In a semi-famous American moment; Jeffrey created serveral pieces of art including an American Flag made of US one dollar bills. It still flies today in the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library. He officially changed his name from Alan Maurer to Scott after marrying Sonya Kroch because of people misspelling his original name. Jeffrey started his animation and writing career in 1976 as an assistant story editor and co-story writer for Dynomutt: Dog Wonder and a co-writer of the little known cartoon Clue Club, both from Hanna-Barbera. Within a year; he became a full time writer; penning 39 episodes of Superfriends. To keep himself even more creative; he started to pen live-action television scripts in 1979 with The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo and Lobo in 1981 for Universal. In 1982; Jeffrey Scott made a bit of history again by writing the first 3D (kind with glasses) animated feature: Starchaser: The Legend of Orin. His first Disney work was the Disney Sunday Night Movie: Starbike in 1985 and he wrote about a dozen Disney Television Animation scripts; the last show being PB&J Otter. Jeffrey has written over 600 television scripts for all the major American animation studios in existance and has done a number of scripts for several studios in Europe in recent years (Includes: Zorro: The Animated Series, Ducktales, Dragontales, Mr. Baby and Mega Man among others). He also has penned a number of live action movies and serveral live-action television scripts over the years (Includes: Wake, Rattle & Roll, The Married Couple, Mr. Merlin and Kiss of Death (an internet movie in 2001).

Summary: Her real name is Lonnie Lloyd. Lonnie Lloyd began as a layout artist at Filmation in 1976, working on "Space Sentinels" and "The New Adventures of Batman". By 1979 she was storyboarding at Hanna-Barbera, before returning to Filmation and then back to H-B to work on "The Smurfs." She was credited with storyboard work on Marvel's "Dungeons and Dragons", and she worked on the 1981 Heavy Metal feature (question: was there anyone in animation in 1981 who didn't work on the Heavy Metal feature?). Since the mid-1980s she has storyboarded for Disney on such projects as "The Return of Jafar," "Aladdin and the King of Thieves," "Pooh's Grand Adventure: The Search for Christopher Robin," "Pocahontas II: Journey to a New World," "The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea" and "The Jungle Book 2". She was not the inspiration behind Gadget in Rescue Rangers; as it was something Tad Stones was joking about.

Summary: According to David Weimers' himself: For over 25 years, I had the privilege of being a writer and producer of television comedies in Hollywood. In 1984, my writing partner, Ken Koonce, and I were the first writing/producing team hired by Michael Eisner and Jeffrey Katzenburg when they took over the Walt Disney Company; Ken and I wrote and produced the company's first animated television series, "The Wuzzles." The following year, we were part of the team that created "DuckTales." We wrote, produced and I was the voice director of nearly half of the 126 episodes that are available. The show became a worldwide hit. After the success of that show, my career soared—I wrote and produced hits at Universal Studios such as "Coach", "Major Dad", and "Harry and the Hendersons" both as a writing team and on my own. Over the years I was nominated for 5 Emmy Awards and won the Emmy in 1988 for writing "Jim Henson's Muppet Babies." In 1988 I was nominated for the prestigious Humanitas Award, the award given to Hollywood's most humanizing script of the year. Over the course of my television career, I worked on dozens of comedies and have written, produced and voice-directed over 150 half hour shows that made the air. And there is a pile of scripts written that never saw daylight. Time and time again, the studios asked me to transform properties they owned into television series. Sometimes it was a movie, such as "Baghdad Café" and "Teen Wolf"; sometimes it was a book, such as "Clifford, the Big Red Dog." In turn, this became an opportunity for me to work with some of the greatest artists in America today. Often, those talented individuals brought my visions to life by designing characters or creating settings for animated series. Now that I'm retired from the television industry, I realized it was time to stop leaning on those great artists and start doing it for myself. I am now living in La Jolla, California.

Summary: He started out in animation screenwriting in the mid 1980s, cutting his teeth on the Disney movies The Fox and the Hound, The Black Cauldron, The Little Mermaid and Oliver and Company and shows such as Challenge of the GoBots. By the late 1980s he had become a staff writer for Walt Disney Television Animation, working on many of the well-known Disney cartoons from that era. He served as an episode writer and story editor for The New Adventures of Winnie-the-Pooh, in which his personal writing style of subtle humor and underlying intelligence became apparent. In 1989, in order to fill a major gap in Disney's production schedule, he co-developed a new series with fellow staff writer Jymn Magon called TaleSpin, for which they ironed out the concept in only three days. They both oversaw the expedited production of the show, which went from a rough draft concept to completed episodes in less than a year. The show became the first new series created for the newly formed Disney Afternoon. He left Disney around 1992. Shortly after, he developed a cartoon series for Film Roman based on the Mighty Max line of toys, aptly named Mighty Max. This series is a great example of the characteristics that defined his career: stories driven by three-dimensional characters, intelligent dialog chock-full of hidden yet relevant references, and zany situations. He also helped develop the ABC Saturday morning cartoon Cro in 1993. He reunited with Jymn Magon in 1994 for Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad. Other notable series co-developed by Zaslove include Bump in the Night and The Legend of Calamity Jane. Mark Zaslove was an uncredited crew member (along with Roque Ballesteros, Lyla Warren, Jeff Biancalana, Alan Lau, Warren Graff and Kenn Navarro) on Space Jam, Quest for Camelot and The Iron Giant. He met Roque, Lyla, Jeff, Alan, Warren and Kenn again as he was working on the ultroviolent Happy Tree Friends. In 1998, Palisades Films optioned feature rights to Zaslove's script Sincerely Maggie based on the life of singer/songwriter Maggie Louie but the film was never produced. Zaslove jumped into the international scene in the 2000s, serving as a story consultant and show writer for the children's series LazyTown, produced in Iceland. He also became heavily involved in the emerging entertainment industry in India as well as making his foray into live-action writing and directing. He is a two-time Emmy award winner and a recipient of the Humanitas Prize. In 2018, Aperient Press published the first thriller in his new “Tales of a Badass IRS Agent” series: “Death and Taxes.”
