In the 1970s, he established an alternative to mainstream animation through <a href="/wiki/Independent_animation" title="Independent animation">independent</a><sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and <a href="/wiki/Adult_animation" title="Adult animation">adult-oriented productions</a>. Between 1972 and 1994, he directed nine theatrically released feature films, predominantly <a href="/wiki/Urban_fiction" title="Urban fiction">urban</a> <a href="/wiki/Drama_film" class="mw-redirect" title="Drama film">dramas</a> and <a href="/wiki/Fantasy_film" title="Fantasy film">fantasy films</a>, five of which he wrote. He has also been involved in numerous television projects as director, writer, producer and animator. </p><p>Beginning his career at the <a href="/wiki/Terrytoons" title="Terrytoons">Terrytoons</a> television cartoon studio as a <a href="/wiki/Cel" title="Cel">cel</a> polisher, Bakshi was eventually promoted to animator and then director. He moved to <a href="/wiki/Famous_Studios" title="Famous Studios">the animation division</a> of <a href="/wiki/Paramount_Pictures" title="Paramount Pictures">Paramount Pictures</a> in 1967 and started his own studio, Bakshi Productions, in 1968. Through producer <a href="/wiki/Steve_Krantz" title="Steve Krantz">Steve Krantz</a>, Bakshi made his debut feature film, <i><a href="/wiki/Fritz_the_Cat_(film)" title="Fritz the Cat (film)">Fritz the Cat</a></i>, released in 1972. It was based on the <a href="/wiki/Fritz_the_Cat" title="Fritz the Cat">comic strip</a> by <a href="/wiki/Robert_Crumb" title="Robert Crumb">Robert Crumb</a>, was the first animated film to receive an <a href="/wiki/X-rated" class="mw-redirect" title="X-rated">X rating</a> from the <a href="/wiki/Motion_Picture_Association_of_America" class="mw-redirect" title="Motion Picture Association of America">Motion Picture Association of America</a>, and is the most successful independent animated feature of all time. </p><p>Over the next 11 years, Bakshi directed seven additional animated features. He is well known for such films as <i><a href="/wiki/Wizards_(film)" title="Wizards (film)">Wizards</a></i> (1977), <i><a href="/wiki/The_Lord_of_the_Rings_(1978_film)" title="The Lord of the Rings (1978 film)">The Lord of the Rings</a></i> (1978), <i><a href="/wiki/American_Pop" title="American Pop">American Pop</a></i> (1981), and <i><a href="/wiki/Fire_and_Ice_(1983_film)" title="Fire and Ice (1983 film)">Fire and Ice</a></i> (1983). In 1987, Bakshi returned to television work, producing the series <i><a href="/wiki/Mighty_Mouse:_The_New_Adventures" title="Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures">Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures</a></i>, which ran for two years. After a nine-year hiatus from feature films, he directed <i><a href="/wiki/Cool_World" title="Cool World">Cool World</a></i> (1992), which was largely rewritten during production and received poor reviews, consequently being his last theatrical feature-length film to date. Bakshi returned to television with the live-action film <i><a href="/wiki/Cool_and_the_Crazy" title="Cool and the Crazy">Cool and the Crazy</a></i> (1994) and the <a href="/wiki/Anthology_series" title="Anthology series">anthology series</a> <i><a href="/wiki/Spicy_City" title="Spicy City">Spicy City</a></i> (1997). </p><p>During the 2000s, he focused largely on fine art and painting, and in 2003, co-founded the Bakshi School of Animation with his son Eddie and Jess Gorell. Bakshi has received several awards for his work, including the 1980 Golden Gryphon for <i>The Lord of the Rings</i> at the <a href="/wiki/Giffoni_Film_Festival" title="Giffoni Film Festival">Giffoni Film Festival</a>, the 1988 <a href="/wiki/Annie_Award" class="mw-redirect" title="Annie Award">Annie Award</a> for Distinguished Contribution to the Art of Animation, and the 2003 Maverick Tribute Award at the <a href="/wiki/Cinequest_Film_Festival" class="mw-redirect" title="Cinequest Film Festival">Cinequest Film Festival</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Early_life">Early life</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Ralph_Bakshi&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Early life"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Ralph Bakshi was born on October 29, 1938 in <a href="/wiki/Haifa" title="Haifa">Haifa</a>, <a href="/wiki/Mandatory_Palestine" title="Mandatory Palestine">British Mandate of Palestine</a>, to a <a href="/wiki/Krymchaks" title="Krymchaks">Krymchak</a> <a href="/wiki/Jewish" class="mw-redirect" title="Jewish">Jewish</a> family. In 1939, his family migrated to the United States, and he grew up in the <a href="/wiki/Brownsville,_Brooklyn" title="Brownsville, Brooklyn">Brownsville</a> neighborhood of <a href="/wiki/Brooklyn" title="Brooklyn">Brooklyn</a>. The family lived in a low-rent apartment, where Bakshi became fascinated with the urban milieu. As a child, he enjoyed comic books, and he often dug through trash cans to find them.<sup id="cite_ref-Gibson-McDonnell-22_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Gibson-McDonnell-22-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>According to an interview in 2009, Bakshi said he was very poor and the walls of his neighborhood were constantly repainted. He liked the feeling when he looked out the window and saw the sun as a little boy, and whenever he would walk out in the streets, someone would break open the wooden crates in the push-carts that were filled with food, stating as such: "And the push carts were wood, and most of the buildings were made out of old wood, going back to the turn of the century, and they were repainted a lot but the paint was faded by, you know the hundred years of snow and rain, repainted and faded again." Bakshi loved the faded colors, the nails, the wooden crates, and he would build his own toys from the wood.
