Bob Doucette

Bob Doucette directed many popular animated children’s programs, including the PBS SPROUT hits Chloe’s Closet and Dive Olly Dive. Doucette has also worked on such award-winning shows as Clifford’s Puppy Days, Stephen Spielberg Presents: Tiny Toon Adventures, and Stephen Spielberg Presents: Animaniacs. His independently animated films won him many prestigious awards and honors, and his MFA thesis film Pink Triangle is in the permanent collection at the New York Public Library.

Doucette has worn many titles as an artist, from set designer to animator, and has a wide variety of interests. What started as a career in puppetry segued into a doll-making hobby. His Ben Franklin doll, created for the White House Christmas tree in 1999, is in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian. Many of his dolls are in the private collection of Demi Moore and have been featured in magazine articles, TV programs, and sold in galleries. 

For the last ten years, Doucette has been exhibiting and selling his paintings and sculptures in galleries. Bob is very grateful for the opportunity to work with Disney Fine Arts, as Walt Disney has always been his biggest inspiration.

Born in Waterville, Maine, educated at Rhode Island School of Design, and has a master’s degree in animation from CalArts, and at present lives in Peoria, Illinois.
