My intention is to get all my films on youtube, including the many songs I animated for Sesame Street between 1989 and 2000. Visit my web site if you'd like to purchase a DVD of all my cartoons. (Not Sesame Street) I usually ship them out the same day or next day.

Lately, when I try to answer your emails, youtube runs into problems and they don't go through. As for sharing videos, it all starts to get too complicated for me so I don't do it-- please don't take it personally!
Name: Sally
I animated or directed all the videos on my channel. I think youtube and brightcove are great new forms of entertainment, and I'm happy to share all the animation I've done with a new audience. I sell a dvd of my work at my website.
City: Northridge, CA
Hometown: Chatham, NJ
Country: United States
Occupation: Animating off and on for 35 years!
Interests and Hobbies: I raise chickens as pets, have a retired horse named Pepper, and an amazing German Shepherd. She takes lessons in agility and sheep herding.
Films and Shows: Biggest influence on my cartoons would be the Max Fleischer cartoons and Busby Berkeley musicals.
Music: Does anyone want the 200 pounds of 78 records that are still in my closet? I collected music from the 20's and 30's for a long time, but now I never spin these ancient shellac circles.
Books: Two favorite authors: Barbara Comyns, a weird 20th century British author who no one seems to have read, and T.C. Boyle, who's never as good as he could be. Lately I've been reading more mysteries, and Western History. I loved Larry McMurtry's "Lonesome Dove."

Hi Sally!

It's such a treat to see all your work up here on youtube. I had met you in 2004 at the CalArts CSSSA animation program. You probably don't remember me, but I was always been a big fan of your work on Sesame Street as a child. I notice now as I'm working on my grad film, that my style is very much inspired by your brilliant wackiness.

Thanks Sally.

I was watching TV today and there was a cheesy 80's flick called "Loverboy" on. In two seconds I recognized the title sequence to be yours. ;) I love your work.
