Dreaming a way (of) Life: The Films of Lewis Klahr (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781032547299)

Chris Robinson is a Canadian writer and the Artistic Director of the Ottawa International Animation Festival (OIAF). A leading figure in the animation world, Robinson has received several prestigious honors, including the Animafest Zagreb Award for Outstanding Contribution to Animation Studies (2020) and the Prix René Jodoin (2022) for his contributions to Canadian animation. Widely regarded as "one of the most stylistically original and provocative experts in the history of animation," Robinson's influence extends across writing, curation, and film.

Robinson first garnered attention through his eclectic and influential magazine column, Animation Pimp, which was later adapted into a book of the same name. Beyond his contributions as a critic and historian, Robinson co-wrote the award-winning animated short Lipsett Diaries (2010), directed by Theodore Ushev. More recently, he collaborated with German artist Andreas Hykade on an illustrated novel titled My Balls Are Killing Me.
