A Great Cel-Animator Indeed, In the Early Years, He Worked for Richard Williams Studios and Made some Commercials, PSA's, and "Ziggy's Gift", Plus He Did Work on another British Program Called "Rupert and the Frog Song", And Yes, Most Famous for Animating The Genie in Disney's "Aladdin", Phil in "Hercules", Most of "Fantasia 2000", and Mostly on Louis the Alligator in Disney's "The Princess and the Frog"(In Which he Won an Annie Award for Best Character Animation in a Feature Production). Plus He Uses DigiCel Flipbook for Greater Working Progress, What a Guy!

That guy is great I swear! Did you ever see the animation for EPCOT's Gran Fiesta Tour at WDW starring Donald Duck and his pals from "3 Caballeros"? He has the Ward Kimball spirit downpat in those bits!

Jerry Beck once referred to Eric Goldberg as "the world's cuddliest animator", and you really captured that here!

Nice caricature of him!!!
Also, it was he, who did a segment on FANTASIA 2000 with Al Hirschfeld, that famous caricaturist and a hero of Eric!!! ;D

His Genie was a breath of fresh air in Aladdin, no diss on Disney. Genie and Iago, as voiced by Gilbert Gottfried (and who was given a script that was funny and suited his style without getting into his usual vulgarity) were the highlights of Aladdin for me.
Excellent tribute to one of the greats. Was the Popeye shirt your idea, or is Eric a big Popeye fan himself?

Eric Goldberg is one of my major influences in life. His work is pure genius.
