About

Fred Quimby (1886–1965) was a film producer and animator. They were born in Minneapolis.

In context

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer cartoon studio was founded in 1937 and closed in 1957, after 20 years. Among the 11 other film industry companies founded in the 1930s we hold, those that closed lasted a median of 38 years, so this one closed earlier than most.
