TRIVIA:

He met "Peanuts" creator Charles Schulz in 1959 when he was making Ford Motor TV commercials featuring the Peanuts characters. Melendez became the only artist Schulz authorized to animate the characters.
After working at Disney, he joined Warner Brothers in the 1940s, where he worked on Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Porky Pig cartoons.
A professional animator for almost seven decades, his career began in 1938 when he was hired by Walt Disney Studios. He worked on classic feature films such as "Fantasia" and "Pinocchio", as well as Mickey Mouse cartoons.
With Lee Mendelson, Melendez produced, directed, or animated about 70 "Peanuts" TV specials, four movies, and hundreds of commercials. He was also the "voice" of Snoopy.
His family moved from Mexico to Arizona in 1928, and then to Los Angeles, where Melendez attended the Chouinard Art Institute.
