Thank you William Hanna for voicing Tom’s screams.

[@CheeseMiser]

He literally created tom and Jerry with joe

[@NajamKEF]

I have watched Tom & Jerry episodes hundreds of times and still enjoy them as much I did the first time. There is some magic in these cartoons and it feels like a lot of effort was put into making every scene.

[@JustJohn505]

Finding Tom's voice actor: *:D* Finding out he has gray hair in 1970s: oh no...

[@rotundmonibuv5103]

Well, he didn't die until 2001.

The way that William Hanna smiles out of joy in the beginning of this interview just reminds you that he knows how much happiness the cartoon has brought to a lot of people, and he knows that it's a favorite of many.

[@coreywade6537]

Sailed with Bill on the GALATEA in 1975, 9 Mo. in Mexico with my uncle Bill, His wife Violet was on the boat off and on. 9 Months off sea time prior to going in the US Coast Guard. Bill was the greatest person to spend time with. Very down to earth and good cook. A great father / Uncle I have many photos of the Baja trip. Many thanks to his son David. Not a day goes by without talking about this sailor man.

WILLIAM RIP GUYS 😭😭😰😰😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@brycefourn2001]

Is this where we first found out that William Hanna is the one who did Tom's scream/vocal effects? Just curious because of what the comment section is saying...

[@davaotripsters]

Yes he is. He actually recorded the Tom screams since 1942 and even Jerry's screams since 1940 that they used in 40s, 50s Hanna-Barbera-produced Tom and Jerry cartoons and even 1960s Chuck Jones-produced Tom and Jerry cartoons alongside Mel Blanc in several cartoons, until now they still used in Tom and Jerry franchise from TV commercials, and even Tom and Jerry Show 2014, the 2021 Tom and Jerry movie, Tom and Jerry Special shorts, Tom and Jerry in New York series and the upcoming Tom and Jerry Time aka Tom and Jerry Junior and its video game, MultiVersus.

"I haven't seen anything in the last 10 or 15 years that equaled the quality or the basic good humor of [Tom and Jerry]." However many years it's been since this was recorded, add that number to the count.

The real name of William Hanna is Bill! And the original names of William Hanna and Joseph Barbera is Bill Hanna and Joe Barbera.Bill or William Hanna is the voice of Tom's and his screamings.

[@army00083]

He is Syrian origine , his father and grandfathers are registered with church documents..because Christians register their marriage and their children in the church in Syria and his family is still present. His father was a Syrian artist as well.

😀 If you've ever seen the Scooby Doo episode where the gang meets Don Adams the animators do an in-joke during the mask removal near the end of the episode. One of the faces that shows up in the long list of false masks worn by Lorne Chumley is the face of William Hanna.
