About

Joseph Barbera (1911–2006) was a film producer and film director. They were born in Little Italy. They studied at Erasmus Hall High School.

In context

Hanna-Barbera was founded in 1957 and closed in 2001, after 44 years. Among the 14 other film industry companies founded in the 1950s we hold, those that closed lasted a median of 7 years, so this one outlasted most of them.
