Fred Quimby (1886-1965):

Birthname: Frederic C. Quimby (info from imdb.com)
The MGM animation staff, especially Joseph Barbera and William Hanna, despised Quimby when he was head of the animation department. They felt he was a useless bore who had no love or talent in the medium but still fought with the artists continually over their creative ideas. The fact that he always took the credit for the awards won for the cartoons was especially galling.

Of all the Hollywood cartoon series, the Tom and Jerry cycle got the most out of the least, wringing over one hundred generally excellent episodes out of the minute, three-word plot description: Cat chases mouse. While the formula itself remained the same, different aspects of the equation were occasionally altered to distinguish the individual one-reelers from each other, which usually entailed the setting or the introduction of a charater.
    -Will Friedwald

- from "The Truce Hurts"
The dog, the cat, and mouse agree,
To live together peacefully.
With this Truce we won't tinker,
The one that does, is a Stinker.

      Signed,
   Tom, Jerry, & Spike
