Friz Freleng(1905 - 1995) was born in Kansas City and attended Westport High School, where he drew cartoons for the school's publications from 1919 to 1923. To earn extra money, he worked as a caddy at the Kansas City Country Club. He had a natural talent for cartooning and was completely self taught. While still in high school, he worked for the United Film Service at 24th and Charlotte Streets, along with Walt Disney, U.B. Iwerks and other local cartoonists. When Disney moved to Hollywood and started making cartoons, he sent for Freleng and some of his other fellow workers.

Freleng worked for Disney on cartoons that featured Oswald, the Lucky Rabbit. He joined the Warner Brothers' cartoon department in 1931, and had become the director of animation by 1933. He worked with Warner Brothers for 30 years. More than 260 Warner Brothers cartoons bear Freleng's name as animator or director. He was called the most prolific of the studio's animators and his cartoons consistently won Academy Awards. After Warner Brothers quit making cartoons in 1963, Freleng and an associate formed DePatie-Freleng to produce the Pink Panther television series and other televised cartoon specials.

As the head animator and director of the Warner Brothers' cartoon department, Freleng was responsible for the "Merrie Melodies" and "Looney Tunes" cartoon series. He had a hand in bringing to life Porky Pig, Bugs Bunny, Tweety Bird, Sylvester, Daffy Duck and Speedy Gonzalez.
