Steven Lenton

Biography

Steven Lenton hails from Cheshire, England, where he spent many a school holiday working in the family pom-pom Factory, packing poms and designing new products. This somewhat fluffy start to his career did no harm, though, as since leaving the factory, he gained a BA and MA in animation and has become a successful animator and art director for children’s television, including work on the BAFTA-winning The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers and as co-director of a Teletubby pop video. Steven also designs greeting cards and prints. He currently lives with his partner Jay and his dog in Crouch End where he dunks endless amounts of hob-nobs (other biscuits are available) in big red spotty cups of tea whilst listening to Radio 2.
