Myron Waldman
Jerry Beck emailed me this afternoon to tell me that Myron Waldman had died Saturday morning at age 97.
This is a blow to New York animation. Myron was seen as the wunderkind of the Fleischer studio, and he ends up being one of the longest lasting of the group. The best obituary posted at this point is on Mike Dobbs’ Out of the Inkwell blog. I urge you to go there and read about Myron’s productive and illustrative life.
There are some good photos of Myron on Mark Mayerson’s Al Eugster site. Worth visiting and revisiting.
