For decades, audiences were drawn into vivid animated worlds filled with unforgettable characters, emotion, and quiet life lessons—often without pausing to consider the creative force behind them. That reflection came into focus following the passing of acclaimed filmmaker and animator Roger Allers, who died at age 76 after a brief illness. Generations of viewers revisited memories
