## Bio

Jones started in 1933 at Warner Bros.' Termite Terrace studio alongside Tex Avery and Friz Freleng, learning the craft that would define American animation. During World War II he directed the Private Snafu military training shorts, then spent decades refining the Looney Tunes roster into something faster and stranger than anyone expected. After Warner Bros. ended that run in 1962, he launched Sib Tower 12 Productions and made Tom and Jerry shorts for MGM, then directed the 1966 television adaptation of Dr. Seuss's How the Grinch Stole Christmas!. He won an Oscar for The Dot and the Line in 1966 and received an honorary Academy Award in 1996. When animation professionals ranked the fifty greatest cartoons in 1994, ten were his—with What's Opera, Doc? at the top.
