Friz Freleng Biography
Born: 21 August 1905
Birthplace: Kansas City, Missouri
Died: 26 May 1995
One of the most prolific and successful animators of the 20th century, Isadore "Friz" Freleng was the director of Merry Melodies and Looney Tunes for Warner Brothers cartoons, and the guy behind the popular TV cartoon The Pink Panther. Freleng started in the cartoon business when he was just out of high school. He followed fellow animator Walt Disney to Hollywood in the late 1920s, but in 1930 he went to work for Warner Brothers. Freleng may not be as famous as Chuck Jones, but for three decades he was responsible for some of Warner's most popular cartoons, including Tweety Pie (1946) and Speedy Gonzalez (1955). When the studio stopped making cartoons in 1963, Freleng teamed with David H. DePatie to form DePatie-Freleng Enterprises, an animation studio that had great success with the Pink Panther television cartoon. Freleng created the Warner Brothers character Yosemite Sam, and once told the Associated Press that he felt some kinship to the hotheaded bandit: "I have the same temperament. I'm small, and I used to have a red mustache."
