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. He's had the pleasure of working with Disney-Hyperion on HOLLY'S DAY AT THE POOL and Little Simon, an imprint Simon & Schuster on GO TO SHEEP. 

 

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 and Moana. Originally from Vancouver, BC, Benson now lives in sunny Southern California.
