Ted Key, creator of Hazel, Mr. Peabody and Sherman cartoon characters passed away at age 95. His cartoons ran in the Saturday Evening Post and Collier’s before I was born, but I spent hours of my youth watching Hazel in syndication and Mr. Peabody and Sherman on The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show.

    I just really enjoy seeing who you profile each day–what a wonderful concept. We must be somewhere around the same age–I smiled, thinking of watching some of those same shows myself as a child. I’d forgotten all about Hazel, actually! Sounds like Mr Key lived a good long life.

    That would put you somewhere between Miley Sirus and Methuselah.

    Best,
