Friz Freleng

Isadore "Friz" Freleng (August 21, 1905[lower-alpha 1] – May 26, 1995),[4] credited as I. Freleng early in his career, was an American cartoonist. He was known for introducing characters such as Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig, Tweety, Sylvester the Cat, Yosemite Sam, and Speedy Gonzales.

Notes
  1. Many references say 1906 but according to his 1940 census record, he was born in 1905, so it's disputed if it's 1906 or 1905.[1][2][3]
