Willard Bowsky

He was skilled at animating complicated perspective shots and directing many of the jazz-influenced cartoons produced by the studio. Bowsky was killed in World War II in eastern France while serving combat duty in the United States Army and was awarded posthumously the Silver Star and the Purple Heart.
