Episode 85: Concept Artist and Illustrator Tao Nguyen

Former Disney Studios character artist Tao Nguyen joins us. He worked on feature films such as The Lion King, Fantasia 2000, Treasure Planet, and The Princess and the Frog. He didn't let rejection stop him from getting into art school or achieving his goal of working in animation. He kept his infectious, positive outlook and was eventually able to work at Disney and he shares the story of his journey. You can see his artwork and learn more about him at taonguyenarts.com. Plus, Disney honors the late archivist Dave Smith with a window on Main Street. Do you have a topic for us? We'd love to hear from you.
