Arthur Rankin Jr. on Frosty the Snowman

Animation producer/director Arthur Rankin, Jr. talks about working on Frosty the Snowman and muses on why the cartoon has endured:

"People sing these songs every Christmas. They see them coming on television. Don't forget, they were the first of their kind. And I'm guessing that grandparents sit there with the children: this is what grandma saw. Or parents: you'll like this because we liked it so much.”
