[[Ralph Bakshi]] is an American [[film director|director]] whose work in [[film|motion pictures]] spans from 1972 to 1994. He is probably best known today for his [[animation|animated film]]s, notably ''[[Fritz the Cat (film)|Fritz the Cat]]'', ''[[Coonskin (film)|Coonskin]]'' and ''[[The Lord of the Rings (1978 film)|The Lord of the Rings]]''. He made voice cameos in six of his animated features, and in episodes of ''[[Spicy City]]'' and ''[[Ren & Stimpy "Adult Party Cartoon"]]''.

From 1957 to 1968, Bakshi worked in the animation department, and later as a director, on several animated series for both [[Terrytoons]] and [[Paramount Pictures]]. Bakshi made his debut feature film ''Fritz the Cat'' in 1972. Afterwards, Bakshi began to produce more feature films, including ''[[Heavy Traffic]]'' and ''[[Hey Good Lookin' (film)|Hey Good Lookin']]'', experimenting with the use of live-action footage, and becoming known as a pioneer of [[adult animation]].<ref name="Gibson-McDonnell">{{cite book |last1=Gibson |first1=Jon M. |last2=McDonnell |first2=Chris |title=Unfiltered: The Complete Ralph Bakshi |year=2008 |publisher=Universe Publishing |isbn=0789316846 }}</ref>

Bakshi also worked in the [[fantasy film]] genre, directing ''[[Wizards (film)|Wizards]]'', ''The Lord of the Rings'' and ''[[Fire and Ice (1983 film)|Fire and Ice]]''. These films, along with ''[[American Pop]]'', incorporated use of [[rotoscoping]].<ref name="Gibson-McDonnell"/> Bakshi's last theatrically released film was ''[[Cool World]]'', released in 1992, and he has since worked primarily on television productions, such as ''[[Cool and the Crazy]]'' and ''Spicy City''.
