Born in Toronto on February 27, 1957, Danny Antonucci had a major interest in animation as a little boy.

He was fascinated by cartoons (and many other things animated) and would spend long times drawing and trying to figure out how the pictures "moved." Antonucci made his first cartoon at the age of 14.

On April 1, 1994, Antonucci started the animation company a.k.a. Cartoon. His most famous cartoon, Ed, Edd n Eddy, is currently in production and airs on Cartoon Network.
