Personal life
Timothy Walter Burton was born in Burbank, California, on August 25, 1958. Growing up in the heart of the entertainment industry, he displayed an early talent for drawing and animation. In 1976, he enrolled at the California Institute of the Arts. During his second year there, he entered the Disney animation program, eventually becoming a Disney animator two years later. However, the job, which involved painstakingly drawing 129,000 frames for a 90-minute animated film, proved to be less enjoyable for Burton, and his distinctive style didn't align with Disney's, leading to his departure from the studio.
