Description:

By the 1980s animated cartoons were seen as an artform in decline. An archaic vestige of the old Hollywood studio system. Yet by the 1990s animation was booming. Blockbuster movies and TV shows, interactive games and special effects extravaganzas all generating billions of dollars. What happened?

Review Quotes:

"If you weren't around in the 90's, and I can't imagine that but I guess that some people weren't, Tom Sito's latest book Drawing Life Back Into Animation, A personal journey through the Toon Renaissance of the 1990's is a must read part of animation history. Written by a man who was there and lived to tell the tale, the book is full of memories and a lot of facts and information about a pivotal time in the animation. It is also a fun read!" - Nancy Denny-Phelps, international animation journalist and author
