Chris Miller
Chris Miller is an American film director, storyboard artist, and voice actor best known for his work with DreamWorks Animation. Following a stint working with Ralph Bakshi on his film Cool World (1992), he would begin his career at DreamWorks as a storyboard artist on films Fourmiz (1998) and Shrek (2001) before being promoted to head of story on Shrek 2 (2004). This led to him becoming the director of two subsequent entries in the franchise, those being Shrek le troisième (2007) and Le Chat potté (2011). Miller is also known for his role as Kowalski in the Madagascar film series (except for Les Pingouins de Madagascar (2008), where he was voiced by Jeff Bennett instead), and has voiced numerous characters in other DreamWorks movies.
