On January 12, 1957, the world welcomed Mr. John Lasseter, an outstanding contributer to the animation industry and an equally gifted storyteller. As chief creative officer at Pixar Animation Studios and an Academy Award-winning animator, Mr. Lasseter has touched audiences – young and old alike – worldwide with such films as Toy Story, A Bug’s Life, and Cars, and his influence continues to spread through not only merchandise, but also through the hearts of dedicated fans.
Let’s give a big round of applause for the man! Happy Birthday, John!

Happy Birthday, Mr. Lasseter. Thanks for everything you’ve done for the world of animation. May you get lots of toys and Hawaiian shirts for your birthday .
Happy birthday, Mr. Lasseter! If there’s one person out there who epitomizes what Pixar stands for, it’s John Lasseter. I can’t imagine what the world of animation would be like without him and his contributions.
