Stone-age visionary: to rescue animation, the no-frills cartoonist had to destroy it
Article Abstract:
Hanna, with partner Joseph Barbera, kept animation alive during the late 1950s and early 1960s, when studios refused to pay the high price of full animation. Purists decry the scaled-down approach of the Flintstones, but admirers claim animation may have disappeared but for Hanna and Barbera's compromise.
