Dr. Seuss

Theodor Seuss Giesel (March 2nd, 1904 - September 24th, 1991), better known by his pen name "Dr. Seuss," was an American author, poet, and cartoonist famous for his books The Cat In The Hat, Horton Hears A Who!, Green Eggs & Ham, The Lorax, How The Grinch Stole Christmas!, and hundreds of others.

For Looney Tunes, he wrote the scripts for many of the Private Snafu cartoons, hence their rhyming dialogue.
