After many years as a magazine illustrator, and like many in his craft, his first motion-picture work was in animation at studios such as Filmation, Hanna-Barbera and Marvel. At Filmation he storyboarded seventeen episodes of Star Trek: The Animated Series.

His best-known live-action credits include Invasion of the Body Snatchers, The Wanderers, The Incredible Shrinking Woman, Blade Runner, 2010, The Witches of Eastwick, Broadcast News, Lethal Weapon 2, The War of the Roses, Thelma & Louise, Bram Stoker's Dracula, Made in America, Free Willy, The Horse Whisperer and What Dreams May Come.

From 1992 until his death from the effects of muscular dystrophy he was married to author and film scholar Katherine Orrison.[1]
