Tex Avery.

Tex Avery was born on February 26th 1908 and died on August 26 1980 aged 72. He was an American animator, cartoonist, voice actor and director, famous for producing animated cartoons during The Golden age of Hollywood animation. He did his most significant work for the Warner Bros. and the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios, creating the characters of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Droopy, Screwy Squirrel, and developing Porky Pig, Chilly Willy into the personas for which they were remembered.

Most of the characters Tex Avery made and helped to improve are till around on childrens tv all around the world still today for example:

Bugs Bunny

Daffy Duck

Porky Pig 

Those are only some of the character that are still around today there are many more.

Creation of the looney tunes stars.

Tex Avery, with the assistance of Clampett, Jones and new associate director Frank Tashlin, laid the foundation for a style of animation that dethroned The Walt Disney Studio as the kings of animated short films, and created a legion of cartoon stars whose names still shine around the world today. Tex Avery in particular was deeply involved; a perfectionist. Tex Avery constantly crafted gags for the short, periodically provided voices for them (including his trade mark belly laugh), and held such control over the timing of the shorts that he would add or cut frames out of the final negative if he felt the gag's timing was not quite right.

Daffy Duck 
Porky's duck hunt introduced the character Daffy Duck, who possessed a new form of "lunacy" that had not been seen before in animated cartooon's. Daffy was almost completely out of control. Who frequently bounced around the film frame in double-speed, screaming "Hoo-hoo hop-hoo" in a high pitched, sped-up voice provided by veteran Warners voice artist Mel Blac who, with his cartoon, also took over providing the voice for Porky Pig.
