Get Well, Alex Anderson

November 7, 2007 12:05 am

ASIFA-San Francisco president Karl Cohen recently checked up on the whereabouts and condition of Alex Anderson (nephew of Paul Terry, Jay Ward’s original partner, creator of Crusader Rabbit, Dudley Do-Right, and Bullwinkle). According to his wife, Pat:

“He had a little setback 3 weeks ago. He fell and severely bruised his hip. He is now using a walker and slowly progressing. He was very agile before that.”

Get Well cards are greatly appreciated. His address is:

Alex Anderson
c/o Flanders Court
25661 Morse Drive
Carmel, CA 93923

	That might be a problem Seeing that News Corporation has the Crusader Rabbit held hostage since their acquisition of Metromedia in order to make the network we know today as “FOX”

	Thanks so much for posting this. I hope Alex gets lots and lots of Get Well Cards and takes them all to heart. Sad he’s not feeling well. I had no idea he lived in Carmel. I lived there for 8 years before 2000. Wow the things you miss… GET WELL ALEX! ~RODAN~

	Wasn’t Crusader Rabbit the first TV cartoon?

	How old is Mr. Anderson, Jerry? My best wishes, too.

	I’ve heard his name before, but didn’t know anything about him until now. So he’s a nephew of Paul Terry AND Jay Ward’s first partner? Has anyone interviewed him? It’s difficult to find any information about Paul Terry’s personal life; so the main way to find out is to ask those related to him.
