Clyde Geronimi

Clito "Clyde" Geronimi (June 12, 1901 – April 24, 1989), known as Gerry, was an American animation director.

Geronimi was born in Chiavenna, Italy, immigrating to the United States as a young child.

Geronimi moved into directing feature-length animated films after the end of World War II, mainly working for Walt Disney Productions.

He was one of the directors on Bambi, Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, Lady and the Tramp, Sleeping Beauty, and One Hundred and One Dalmatians.

After Geronimi left Disney in 1959, he worked in television for a number of years (mostly at UPA), including directing many episodes of the 1967 animated Spider-Man series.
