American Masters: Tyrus Wong

Tuesday, May 27 at 8 p.m.

Until his death at the age of 106, Tyrus Wong was America’s oldest living Chinese American artist. He was one of the last remaining artists from the golden age of Disney animation and an artist for the animated film “Bambi.” The quiet beauty of his Eastern-influenced paintings had a pioneering impact on American art and popular culture.
