Disney Animator Ken Peterson Dead at 91:

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) -- Ken Peterson, who worked as a artist on Walt Disney's
''Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,'' died March 29 of cancer. He was 91.

After a brief attempt at making his own animated motion pictures,
Peterson joined the army of young artists Disney hired in 1936 for
''Snow White,'' the first feature-length animated film.

Peterson headed the art department for many animated films, including
''Alice in Wonderland,'' ''Lady and the Tramp'' and ''Sleeping Beauty.''
