William Bartlett "Bill" Peet (January 29, 1915 – May 11, 2002) was an American children's book illustrator and a story writer and animator for Walt Disney Animation Studios. Bill Peet joined Disney in 1937 and worked first on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) near the end of its production. From 1939 through 1940 he worked on Pinocchio and spent eighteen months working on Dumbo (1941). Progressively, his involvement in the Disney studio's animated feature films and shorts increased with Cinderella (1950), Alice in Wonderland (1951) and Peter Pan (1953). Bill Peet remained there until early in the development of The Jungle Book (1967). A row with Walt Disney over the direction of the project led to a permanent personal break.
