Tex Avery

He was born in February 26 , 1908, Taylor and died in August 26, 1980, Burband. He Educated in North Dallas High School (1927).

Frederick Bean "Texas/Fred/Tex" Avery was an American Animator, cartoonist, voice actor and director, famous for profucing animated cartoons during The Golden Age of Hollywood abunation.

The animation that he did were:  Creation of Looney Tunes stars, Daffy Duck, and Bugs Bunny.

Avery's style of directing encouraged animators to strech the boundries of the medium to do things in cartoon that  could not be done in the world of live-action film. An often-quoted line about Avery's cartoons was, " In a cartoon you can do anything."

Disney's "cute and cuddly" creatures, under Avery's guidance, were transformed into unflappable wits like Bugs Bunny,  endearing buffoons like Porky Pig, or dazzling crazies like Daffy DUck. Even the classic fairy takem a market that Disney has cornered, was appropriated by Avery, who made innocent heroined like Red Riding Hood into sexy jazz babies, more than a match for any Wolf.
