Brice Mack was a background painter and director, known for his extensive work at Disney in the 1940s and 1950s as a background painter. He was also hired for story writing at Disney in the 1950s.

His first credited appearance was as the background artist for the Rite of Spring sequence in Fantasia. He also worked on Song of the South, Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, and Lady and the Tramp. His final work for Disney was in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. In the 1950s he became the president of ERA Productions, a small studio which was staffed with animators who had mostly come from Disney after leaving during the strike of 1941.

His work in film did not stop at animation. He worked as a camera operator and director on live action movies in the 1970s and 1980s. His most notable work in this field is Jennifer, a horror movie written by Steve Krantz.
