## Biography

Jerome Ranft is a character sculptor and voice actor at Pixar Animation Studios. Born on 23 November 1966 in Los Angeles County, California, he joined Pixar in 1997 after earlier work as a sculptor on Disney films including *James and the Giant Peach* (1996). He has contributed sculptures to numerous Pixar productions, among them *A Bug's Life* (1998), *Toy Story 2* (1999), *Monsters, Inc.* (2001), *Finding Nemo* (2003), *Cars* (2006), *Ratatouille* (2007), *Brave* (2012) and *Inside Out* (2015).

Ranft provided the voice of Gamma in the feature film *Up* (2009) and the short *Dug's Special Mission* (2009). He later voiced Jacques in *Finding Dory* (2016), a role originated by his brother, the late Pixar story artist Joe Ranft. He has also supplied voices for characters including Red in the *Cars Toons* series.
