Imogen Sutton, Richard Williams and their ‘Adventures in Animation’

Richard Williams, one of the most revered animators in modern times, leaves a lasting creative impression from ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’ to ‘The Pink Panther’. ‘Adventures in Animation: How I Learned Who I Learned From and What I Did with It’ follows the life and career of Williams in animated features; from the moment when, aged five, he saw ‘Snow White’, and through his career of more than sixty years. 

Following his passing, his wife and collaborator, Imogen Sutton, completed ‘Adventures in Animation’, which in its finished publication is an ode to animated art and to Richard himself. 

Speaking to Georgina Godwin, Sutton shares insights into their work dynamic, Richard’s relationships with Art Babbitt and Ken Harris, plus his influences across the industry.
