Birthdate:May 5, 1945
Birthplace: Warner Bros. Studio's
“The roughest, toughest, he-man stuffiest hombre as ever crossed the Rio Grande and I ain’t no mamby pamby” as Yosemite Sam would say. His first appearance was in 1945’s Hare Trigger. While Friz was looking for a character who was explosive enough to engage in combat with the unfazable Bugs Bunny (Elmer) wasn’t it-he was so dumb that a chicken could outsmart him Freleng recalled. So with Micheal Maltese and Hawley Pratt they designed the smallest, meanest,most loudest character they could imagine and named him Yosemite Sam.
Looking back at Tex Avery’s (Dangerous Dan McFoo 1939) Freleng adopted the character which was a short loud mouthed cowboy. But there were other contributions to the development of the firebrand Sam; Red Skelton fashioned a persona called Sheriff Deadeye, who was a hot western blowhard with a droopy moustache that flapped when he roared his words. Also within the Warner Bros. Studio, Bob Clampett’s (Buckaroo Bugs 1944) featured a sawed-off gunslinger that was based on both Deadeye and on the comic strip character Red Ryder named Red Hot Ryder.
In 1944’s Stage Door Cartoon we can see a Deadeye like sheriff (Bugs Bunny in disguise) which would later become Yosemite Sam. Writer Michael Maltese said that he patterned the character on the short tempered, risiable Friz Freleng himself “Friz was Yosemite Sam".
Yosemite Sam would go on to play many different characters from a Cowboy, Pirate, Sheik, to the Black Knight which would win him an Oscar award. With over thirty cartoon shorts to his credit Yosemite Sam has become Bugs Bunny’s number one archenemy.
