My 13 year old grandson loves art and wants to one day work in the animation
field.  When his junior high school class was asked to write reports for
Black History week on someone they admired, he didn't want to write about
the same Black heroes that most kids write about.  He decided to write about
someone who worked in animation; and he chose Floyd Norman.

He said that Mr. Norman worked at Walt Disney years ago.  He has books from
the library but is looking for material that he could use with his report.
e.g. picture of Mr. Norman, a picture of animated characters that he drew,
anything that would help him bring his report to life and capture the
essence of who Mr. Norman is and his accomplishments in the field of
animation.  Can you help guide us to resources that could help.  His report
is due next week so a reply back quickly would help.

Thanks in advance.
