Joe Hale is an American animator, layout artist, and producer, who worked for Walt Disney Animation Studios from the 1950s to the 1980s, where he acted as a producer for The Black Cauldron.
Joe Hale was born in Newland Village, Indiana and became impressed with animation at the age of 17 after repeat watches of Bambi in the theaters, deciding that was his career path. He later enlisted in the military during World War II and began his animation career afterwards. He was hired by the studio in 1951 as an assistant animator to Ollie Johnston and Ward Kimball for features, such as Peter Pan and Lady and the Tramp before becoming a layout artist for both live-action and animated features, like Sleeping Beauty, One Hundred and One Dalmatians, Mary Poppins, and several episodes of the Disneyland anthology series. He received an Academy Award nomination in 1979 for Best Animated Visual Effects for his efforts on The Black Hole.
•He always preferred his television work over animated features, such as Sleeping Beauty because of the faster work pace and thus did not take long to make.
•He was among those working on early concepts of Beauty and the Beast with David Jonas and Al Wilson before his retirement. They presented their drafts to Michael Eisner, who decided he wanted something more modern than what the team offered.
