He was one of eight children. 〔Great Nephew, William Lord〕 Carr worked for a number of animation studios, and was a credited animator since at least the early 1930s. When, in 1930, Charles Mintz found a cartoon distributor in Columbia Pictures and moved his operations to California, Mr. Carr was amongst his staff;〔Maltin, Leonard. ''Of Mice and Magic: a History of American Animated Cartoons''. Von Hoffmann Press, Inc., 1980. p. 206〕 whilst working at the Warner Bros. studio of Leon Schlesinger, he provided the voice of Buddy from 1933 to 1935: he is also a credited animator on one Buddy short, ''Buddy in Africa''. Carr is also credited with naming the cartoon characters ''Tom and Jerry'' when Hanna-Barbera had a naming contest amongst the staff; Carr won the $25 prize The Art of Hanna-Barbera: Fifty Years of Creativity, Ted Sennett. Hanna and Barbera were said to be unhappy to have their characters named after a popular drink of the time, but history later proved that names having dual associations are the most popular as they are easier for the public to remember Carr family lore. ==Credited animator== Jack Carr animated or co-animated the following shorts, arranged by series & studio: Krazy Kat, Columbia Pictures: * ''Bars and Stripes'' (1931) * ''Hash House Blues'' (1931) * ''Birth of Jazz'' (1932) * ''The Broadway Malady'' (1933) Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Walter Lantz Productions: * ''Day Nurse'' (1932) * ''The Busy Barber'' 〃 * ''Carnival Capers'' 〃 * ''Teacher's Pests'' 〃 * ''The Plumber'' (1933) * ''The Shriek'' 〃 * ''Ham and Eggs'' 〃 * ''Confidence'' 〃 * ''Parking Space'' 〃 * ''Five and Dime'' 〃 * ''Kings Up'' (1934) * ''The County Fair'' 〃 * ''The Ginger Bread Boy'' 〃 * ''Annie Moved Away'' 〃 * ''William Tell'' 〃 * ''Chris Columbus Jr.'' 〃 * ''Sky Larks'' 〃 ''Looney Tunes'' & ''Merrie Melodies'', Leon Schlesinger Productions: * ''Buddy in Africa'' - Looney Tunes (1935) * ''Alpine Antics'' - Looney Tunes (1935) * ''I'm a Big Shot Now'' - Merrie Melodies (1936) ''Barney Bear'', MGM: * ''Bear Raid Warden'' (1944) * ''Barney Bear's Polar Pest'' (1944) * ''The Unwelcome Guest'' (1945) ''Tom and Jerry'', MGM: * ''Mucho Mouse'' (1957) * ''Tom's Photo Finish'' (1957) Carr was also an animator on ''The Yogi Bear Show'' and ''The Flintstones''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jack Carr (animator)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
