Hiroshi Ogawa (animator)

Hiroshi Ogawa (小川 博司, Ogawa Hiroshi) (August 12, 1951 – August 7, 2013[1]) was a Japanese animator. In rare cases, his name is credited in hiragana.

In March 1976, he graduated from Tokyo Designer Gakuin College and joined Tsuchida Production soon afterward. Following Tsuchida's dissolution in March 1983, Ogawa established Studio 501. Afterward, he was attached to Disney Japan (now The Answer Studio) from April 1987 to March 1988 and freelanced for Shin-Ei Animation starting April 1989.[2] He notably served as the animation director of Crayon Shin-chan. In 2006, he was inaugurated as a professor in Kyoto Seika University's animation department.

On August 7, 2013, at 9:20 A.M., Ogawa died from a stomach cancer-induced colon infection at the age of 62.[3]
