The story guy Pixar who made all those movies so good. His car ran offf the road in Mendocino & into the ocean.
He had story credits on The Rescuers, Beauty & The Beast, and the Lion King while at Disney, then joined Pixar & was Head of Story for Toy Story, Bugs Life & Toy Story 2. He also did a lot of voices, including Heimlich in Bugs Life, Wheezy in Toy Story 2 & Jacques the shrimp in Finding Nemo. In Monsters Inc., if you pay attention to the scoreboard battle between Sully & Boggs, the third place name is Ranft.
Here's a blog from a co-worker:
