Subject: Walter Lantz was a nice guy!

I met Mr. Lantz on two occasions back in the 1980s, and found him to be a very warm and gracious person to talk to. Both times, we met in his office at Walter Lantz Productions where he sat underneath a large oil portrait that he had painted of Woody. Although I'm not a big Woody fan myself (I find his character to be a bit too malicious--much like Tex Avery's Screwy Squirrel, only a bit nicer), I enjoyed both my conversations with Mr. Lantz, and came away
a richer person for having met him.
