I just met Bob at his retirement home last night. I won't mention the name to protect his privacy. We ate dinner together with my mom. He is 91 years young, alert, creative, complimented my beautiful mother - said she looked like a star - and told me the history of his life. He hates modern computer animation, still writes scripts and books by hand - won't use a computer - let alone a type writer. After looking him up, I realize he worked with Harry Love who dated my mom . . . small world!
This is simply spellbinding. Bob Givens is a great storyteller, and has a fantastic, biting, sense of humor. Thank you Stephen for putting this up and for interviewing him while he's still around.
WOW..............this is a Legendary man in Animation, Bob Givens.
Thanks for the gift. You Rock, Steve Worth
