Don Lusk, who was hired by Walt Disney in 1933 and is generally considered to be one of the last living animators from Disney’s Golden Age has passed away at 105. Mr. Lusk joined The Disney Studios right before it began animating its classic string of hits. Mr. Lusk worked on Pinocchio and Fantasia among other films before leaving the studio to work on television on such projects as the Charlie Brown specials and eventually Hanna Barbera’s Saturday morning television slate. He retired in the 1990’s.
