Par For The Course By Friz Freleng By Friz Freleng
Isadore “Friz” Freleng began his career in animation for Walt Disney in the 1920’s and joined Warner Bros. in 1930, receiving screen credit on their very first cartoon ‘Sinkin’ In The Bathtub’. Though he specialized in musical cartoons like ‘The Three Little Bops’ and ‘Rhapsody In Rivets’, Friz created characters like Porky Pig and Yosemite Sam, and was instrumental in developing the personalities of Daffy Duck, Speedy Gonzalez, and Tweety & Sylvester. Freleng’s cartoons have won a total of four Academy Awards®, including Bugs Bunny’s Oscar-winner, ‘Knighty Knight Bugs’.
