Andreas Deja
(? - living) Poland - U.S.A.
Supervisor - Animation Division - Walt Disney Company
Andreas Deja was born in Gdansk, Poland. When he was 10, he earned enough money to watch The Jungle Book playing in Dusseldorf. With the help of the German-English dictionary, he wrote to "Walt Disney Studios, America," inquiring how to become a Disney animator.
His talent was later discovered by Eric Larson, and he moved on working for Disney. Deja's first project was The Black Cauldron, where he animated Gurki.
