ANIMATED WOMEN
A quartet of creative biographies that showcase the life and work of
four independent animators: Faith Hubley, Joanna Priestley, Ruth

The series offers viewers an opportunity to see complete, complicated artworks in a lively, engaging, in-person format that redefines the world of "cartoons"
