Robert Gribbroek

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Robert Gribbroek (1906 - 1971) was a layout artist and background painter at the Warner Brothers Cartoon studio from 1945 until 1964. His name was dropped in Chuck Jones' Lost and Foundling (1944), and he worked mainly for Jones until 1952 when he joined Robert McKimson's unit (Jones, meanwhile, replaced him with Maurice Noble). After the Warner's cartoon unit closed, he rejoined Jones at the MGM cartoon department. He retired in 1965. He was not a highly celebrated artist during his career, but many cartoon fans have since come to admire his work.
