Mitch Schauer started sketching at the young age of 18 months. In early childhood, his favorite thing to draw was telephone poles in perspective. He was back and forth between Oklahoma and California with his career and eventually moved to Germany to work for Berlin Animation Film. His animation career extends from star fairies and pound puppies in the early 80s all the way to Angry Beavers in the late 90s. He now resides in California with his wife, Cindy, daughter, Stacy, and son, Robert.
