Jørgen Klubien is a Danish animator, storyboard artist, screenwriter, and occasional director whose fingerprints are all over modern animation history. A veteran of Disney and Pixar, Klubien began his career animating on The Fox and the Hound, Oliver & Company, and The Little Mermaid, before moving into story work where he helped shape classics like The Lion King, Pocahontas, A Bug’s Life, Mulan, Toy Story 2, and The Nightmare Before Christmas. He’s best known as the original creator and co-writer of Cars (2006), bringing his personal story concept to Pixar, where it became one of the studio’s biggest franchises.
