July 14, 1894, New York, N.Y., U.S.—d. June 25, 1979, Hollywood, Calif.) worked as newspaper cartoonists before founding their own studio in 1921 to make animated cartoons. In the mid-1920s they produced the first sound-on-film animations. They later created and produced the popular cartoon series Betty Boop (1931–39), Popeye the Sailor (1929–42), and Superman (1941–42) and the feature-length cartoon Gulliver's Travels (1939).
