Tex Avery was an American cartoonist, animator, and director who is best known for his work in the Golden Age of American animation. He was responsible for creating some of the most iconic cartoon characters of all time, such as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Droopy. Avery's cartoons were known for their wild and zany humor, and he was one of the first to introduce slapstick comedy into cartoons. He worked for Warner Bros. and MGM during his career, and his influence can still be seen in modern cartoons today.
