Benjamin Timothy Arthur (born April 26, 1982, in San Francisco, California) is an American animator. He gained modest acclaim for his animation Once Upon a Time in the Woods,[1] a Rotoscope of his younger brother Julian during a walk in the woods, which has been in numerous film contests around the world and on Current TV.[2]

Arthur also animated the popular "Why Can't We Walk Straight?" and "The Billion Bug Highway" animations for NPR's Robert Krulwich.[3][4] Arthur (along with Krulwich) was the recipient of a third-place Multimedia Innovation award from the White House News Photographers Association's 2011 Eyes of History: New Media Contest.[5]
