About Horst von Möllendorff

  • Horst von Möllendorff (April 26, 1906 – December 17, 1992) was a German cartoonist who was "drafted" to work for the Nazis' animated short industry.
  • He was hired as a result of former commercial animator Hans Fischerkoesen not being able to come up with adequate story ideas for his short films.
  • Horst was pulled from his job as a popular Berlin newspaper cartoonist to become a gagman for the animation industry. Möllendorff received authorship for at least three films: Verwitterte Melodie (Weather-beaten Melody), 1942 Der Schneemann (The Snowman), 1943 Hochzeit im Korallenmeer (Wedding in the Coral Sea), 1945
