Filmmaker Bio(s)
Arnie Lipsey is a veteran of Toronto's animation industry, having worked variously as an animator, designer, and in a variety of other capacities for the last couple of decades. His work can be seen in TV series as diverse as Babar, Eek the Cat, and Ned's Newt, as well as in umpteen commercials and smaller projects, and his independently produced, 1988 award winning film "The Crow and the Canary." "Almonds and Wine" is the result of an on again/off again commitment to his Muse. He also really, really loves Klezmer music.
