Gábor Csupó

Gábor Csupó is one of those hidden architects whose fingerprints are all over my childhood without my ever knowing his name. Co-founding the studio that shaped the first years of The Simpsons and later Rugrats, his slightly off-kilter, jagged visual style burrowed into a generation's memory. What impresses me most is the breadth: animator, writer, director, producer, designer, a true polymath who emigrated from Budapest and built an empire from scratch. I have a deep affection for the unglamorous geniuses who define an era from behind the camera, and Csupó is a textbook case. He deserves far more recognition than the credits usually grant him.
