Description

Two BooksAdam Abraham is the tireless author who turned up stories about UPA that few people had ever heard. Because of that, and his attention to every detail, his book is both thorough and fascinating. Here’s what Amazon.com has to say about it:

What do Franklin Roosevelt, Dr. Seuss, the U.S. Navy, and Mr. Magoo have in common? They are all part of the surprising story of the pioneering cartoon studio UPA (United Productions of America). Throughout the 1950s, a group of artists ran a business that broke all the rules, pushing animated films beyond the fluffy fantasy of the Walt Disney Studio and the crash-bang anarchy of Warner Bros. Instead, UPA’s films were innovative and graphically bold–the cartoon equivalent to modern art. When Magoo Flew is the first book-length study to chronicle the complete story of this unique American enterprise. The book features cameo appearances by Aldous Huxley, James Thurber, Orson Welles, Judy Garland, Robert Goulet, Jim Backus, Eddie Albert, and Woody Allen, as well as a select filmography of the best of UPA.Thank Yoy Letter

Tee Bosustow is the Producer/Director of the upcoming UPA documentary feature, and was a major help on this important UPA book. Adam Abraham gave Bosustow a major Acknowledgement of thanks.
