...Pete Von Sholly, is the Storyboard Artist of Shawshank Redemption.

He's done something like 200 films as storyboard artist, including, for example, Mars Attacks.

He's currently working on the Chucky series on whatever outlet it's on.

I worked on some underground comics with Pete and George Dicaprio (and Tim Leary) back in the 70s.

Just talked to Pete earlier today, we were both thankful to still be here.
