Benson Shum is an author, illustrator, and animator. The idea that an image or painting can evoke emotions and movement is what brought Benson to the world of picture books and animation.
Benson is also an animator at the Walt Disney Animation Studios, where he was a part of such films as Frozen, Big Hero 6, Zootopia, Moana, and Ralph Break the Internet - Wreck it Ralph 2 and Frozen 2. Originally from Vancouver, BC, Benson now lives in sunny Southern California.
