Former Pixar graphic designer Cassandra Smolcic recently penned a lengthy, revealing and distressing personal essay about her time spent with the animation studio.
John Lasseter is the man who essentially built Pixar from the ground up and Disney has always valued him as a visionary.
She states in the essay that she was removed from Cars 2 because John Lasseter couldn’t control himself around her.
Even though Disney is removing John Lasseter from Pixar it appears as though the problem runs much, much deeper than just one man’s sexual misconduct, harassment and inappropriate behavior.
