MrDaniel 14,666 Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Do you remember the iconic cartoon Tom & Jerry and Popeye? Gene Deitch, the director and illustrator of “Tom and Jerry” and “Popeye,” has sadly passed away at the age of 95. The Oscar-winning illustrator passed away on Thursday night at his apartment in Prague. Gene, who's full name was Eugene Merrill Deitch, directed 13 episodes of beloved children's cartoon Tom and Jerry and some from the series Popeye. Gene worked as a draftsman for North American Aviation before being drafted for the military and entering pilot training. 💔. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
