Hench was respected by Walt Disney as one of the studio's most gifted artists and teamed him with Salvador Dalí on the animated short Destino, a project begun in 1945 that was not completed and released until 2003.

By 1954, Hench was in the studio's live action department, as lead developer of the hydraulic giant squid in 20, 000 Leagues Under the Sea, helping to win an Academy Award for Best Special Effects for the film.

During his career, Hench was one of the founding members of the American Rheumatism Association, and served as its president in 1940 and 1941.

His son, Philip Kahler Hench also studied rheumatology.

Hench went on to design many iconic elements for Disney's theme parks, including Cinderella Castle at the Magic Kingdom and Tokyo Disneyland, Space Mountain, and contributed to attractions such as the Mickey Mouse Revue.
