The more creative half of the immensely talented and successful animation partnership Hanna-Barbera - died in his home yesterday aged 95
Joseph Barbera's cause of death probably linked to him being 95 years old.
Created more enduring pop culture figures than almost anyone else around. Although Bill Hanna helped to create Tom & Jerry - who went on to win seven Oscars - Hanna-Barbera is better-known for its television cartoons. The sheer number of lasting Hanna-Barbera creations is too long to list, but highlights include Huckleberry Hound, Yogi Bear, Secret Squirrel, The Flintstones, Wacky Races, The Hair Bear Bunch, Challenge Of The GoBots, 2 Stupid Dogs and official hecklerspray hero Top Cat.
Sail on Joseph Barbera
