Ray Aragon
Aragon was frustrated working in advertising illustration, and in the mid-1950s he returned to Chouinard to take night classes. There he met instructor Marc Davis, who encouraged him to look for work at Disney. Aragon was hired in the Layout Department on Sleeping Beauty.

He was involved in every aspect of its creation, from the costumes to backdrops.[…]
