Born in Krákow and raised in New York, Max Fleischer grew up to cofound Fleischer Studios, the animation pioneers behind such well known characters as Betty Boop, Popeye, and the original series of Superman animated shorts. Amongst his many achievements in the field, Fleischer is credited with the invention of rotoscoping and the sing-a-long short.
