​American animators in the 1970s and 1980s often turned their attention inward, producing personal films that corresponded to the deeply introspective diary filmmakers that formed a key part of the New American Cinema in the previous decade. Representing oneself in a mediated fashion – not only through the moving image but graphically through animation – became particularly important during this period in which more women were active in the field of animation than ever before. From spoken autobiography to allegorical fantasy, artists such as Frank Mouris, Ayoka Chenzira, Sky David and Kathy Rose found ways to intertwine their lives and personalities between the frames of their animated films.
