"Thomas Pipolo"

To the anonymous poster who said he's related to 1930s animator Tom Palmer, can you provide us with more details such as birth and death dates and what he did after leaving theatrical animation? Steelbeard1 (talk) 22:39, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My name is Michelle Rubano. I am Anthony Pipolo (Tom Palmer)'s great great niece. My Mother is Alissa Rubano and Grandfather Edmund Rubano. He was the brother of my Grandfather (Edmund's) mother Josephine Pipilo. Im not sure why the anonymous poster who says hes related thought his name was Thomas Pipilo because it was definitely Anthony aka Tony Pipilo. I also have in my possession "Tom Palmer's" Sketchbooks and art tools. I was told by my grandfather he had to change his name to Tom Palmer in order to get a job without discrimination seeing as though he was a "foreigner" and needed a more "american name". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.8.152.161 (talk) 01:32, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Michelle. Do you have any info about your great great uncle which you can contribute to this article? There are obvious gaps as you know, such as what year he was born and when he died as well as his post-animation career. Steelbeard1 (talk) 02:41, 15 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
