...1919, an 18 year old left home to find work. He joined an art studio and started creating ads. In 1920 he formed a similar ad company with his friend. It had a bad start. He started working for another Ad company (Kansas City Film). His interest in animation made him start his own animation business.
With his friend Iwerks he joined a popular showman Newman to air their cartoons 'Laugh O Grams'. It was a hit. Follwing this they stated their own studio, which had a short life span due to lack of fund. Along with his brother he started a studio in Hollywood this time.
