Paul Dini is best known for writing for such animated series as
Tiny Toon
Adventures,
Animaniacs,
Batman: the Animated Series,
Krypto the Superdog,
He-Man, and many, many others. George Lucas also selected him to pen episodes for
his
Star Wars cartoons
Ewoks and
Droids. There's a lot of us who grew up with Dini's
work but know very little about him. Since he's one of those "behind the scenes" types you don't hear a lot
about him, but the man has quite a hefty and impressive resume. He also has his own
Live Journal that is quite entertaining. I especially enjoyed his
attempt at
trying to get into Mensa. Referring
to the corpulent proctor as "Sans-A-Belt" was pure genius.
