Answer: Clyde Geronimi

Clyde along with Wilfred Jackson and Hamilton Luske are credited with directing this 1951 classic film. Clyde had directing credits on several other Disney animated classic features such as "Sleeping Beauty" and "Cinderella". Clyde died in 1989 at the age of 87 in California.

The film has always been among my top three favorites including "Peter Pan" and "The Rescuers". Clyde was credited with directing "Peter Pan". I still enjoy watching the film as an adult, it has a simple message in my opinion that still holds to this day. Happiness is no further than your own front door.
