Wolfgang "Woolie" Reitherman
Again, I would have liked more personal information about the animator. He went to fly planes during WW2 and came back to Disney in 1947, that sounds super interesing, but there's only a quick mention and we move on.
Woolie became director, unclear if The Rescuers was his last movie or not.

First part is about Les Clark. The author didn't mention if Clark retire, or anything about his personal life (date of birth, married, deceased, etc.) I've watched a few of the shorts mentioned.
