ABOUT THE HONOREES
In “Toy Story 4,” Woody (voice of Tom Hanks), Buzz (voice of Tim Allen) and the gang set out on a road trip adventure with newcomer Forky (voice of Tony Hale), a craft project turned new-favorite-toy who is convinced he’s just trash. When Forky separates from the group, Woody sets off to find him and prove that he actually has the most important purpose of all – to be there for his kid. Along the way, Woody is reunited with his long-lost friend Bo Peep (voice of Annie Potts) whose independent spirit is both appealing and inconceivable to Woody, challenging all his assumptions about what it means to be a toy. As they work together to reunite Forky with his kid, Woody reflects on his own life – and he is faced with a decision, and a future, he never imagined.

Director Josh Cooley – “Toy Story 4”
Josh Cooley joined Pixar Animation Studios in May 2003 immediately after graduation, as an intern in the Story department. He has since worked as a story artist on the Academy Award®-winning films “The Incredibles,” “Ratatouille,” and “Up.” Cooley served as the story supervisor, voice talent, and a writer on Academy Award®-winning “Inside Out,” and was nominated for a Best Original Screenplay Academy Award. He made his directorial debut with “Riley’s First Date,” a short film featuring the characters from “Inside Out.” He most recently directed Disney and Pixar’s latest feature film “Toy Story 4,” which opened in theaters Summer 2019. Born in Berkeley, CA, and raised by wolves, Cooley’s earlier influences include Mad magazine, Steven Spielberg’s movies, and Who Framed Roger Rabbit? He currently resides in the California Bay Area with his wife and kids.
