Regarded as "one of the most successful creators of episodic comedy cartoons",[1] his style was "at the forefront of a second wave of innovative, creator-driven television animation" in the 1990s, along with that of other animators such as Genndy Tartakovsky,[2] and has been credited as "a staple of American modern animated television".[3]
Craig McCracken has been interested in drawing and animation since the age of three.

After briefly considering a career as a comic book illustrator, McCracken studied animation at Cal Arts in LA.
