NOTE: This was originally a thread for just Mike Barrier's interviews with Jaxon, but as more interviews are coming, I thought it would be prudent to make them all part of one thread.
Earlier today, Mike Barrier posted his 1973 interview with Wilfred Jackson, the great Disney director who was at the studio since the final days of Disney's Oswald cartoons, and would remain there for the studio's golden age. Like all of Barrier's interviews with Disney's personnel, it's a fascinating look at the old studio's life; what makes this one especially noteworthy is that Bob Clampett (in addition to Milt Gray) assisted in the interviewing:

On another note, does anyone else find it sad that these interviews usually don't get the attention they deserve? It seems like only the more prominent animation people (and experts) are interested in them.
