      Nor Catmull, unfortunately. FWIW, the article is centered around the financing and IPO side of the story.

      After the MeToo allegations, his contributions have been removed—or at least significantly downplayed—in Disney and Pixar’s accounts of Pixar’s origins.

        This is demonstrably not true.

        He has fairly equal representation as the other founders on their history page

        He also is directly mentioned in the Disney+ docuseries on ILM, and was part of Catmul’s retrospective on Toy Story as recently as this year
