Okay, I'm interviewing JB Kaufman at the end of the month for my podcast. The area of discussion will be silent film era animation, it will encompass Disney, Winsor McKay, Out of the Inkwell and whatever else comes to mind.

I'm trying to come up with some logical and interesting questions.

In the immortal words of The Fly, help me!

How about, "If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be?"

Snowflake,

Do you have Michael Barrier's "Hollywood Cartoons: American Animation in Its Golden Age" or Donald Crafton's "Before Mickey"? If you browse through either book - you might get some good ideas.

If you don't have those books, you're more than welcome to drop by Casa de MousePod and brainstorm.

Yes but does Snowflake want to make the interviewee cry à la Barbara Walters? Once we have the answer to that, we'll know how to tailor the questions.

And how is it everyone understands him and he never opens his mouth? My guess is Garfield is a telepath.

And Zappp, I love your sig logo! Very swankerisious!! :cool:
