Wanda offered animation art for Gallery Lainzberg in exhibitions in Houston, New Orleans, St. Louis, throughout the
Eastern United States. She married Bill in 1984 and has two adult daughters, Elizabeth and Amanda.

As the business grew, John Cairns was hired at Gallery Lainzberg to join Wanda and the Rudmans in 1985. They began to
offer animation art over the phone and through a fine art catalog.

John and Wanda left Gallery Lainzberg after the retirement of the Rudmans. Gallery Lainzberg is now closed.

They joined Gregg Medlyn and his staff at Fine Toon Gallery in Houston, Texas but remained in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. They
pioneered the offering of animation art long distance with faxes and then email and web technology.

John and Wanda left Fine Toon Gallery after Gregg Medlyn sold the business.
Fine Toon closed in 2001.

animation expertise in the country in 2001.
