Don Christensen, 1916-2006

Don Christensen, also known as "Don Arr" or "Don Arr Christensen," a greatly prolific writer of comics in North America and abroad perhaps best known for his comic book work with various Disney characters, passed away October 18, at least according to this notice at afNews.info. Christensen was also an animator, working at Disney from 1937 until the 1941 strike, and at Warners during World War II as a story man, with various I think irregular jobs to follow. A twenty-year fixture at Western, the Minneapolis native also wrote for newspaper strip versions of a few characters, such as Yogi Bear and The Flintstones.

Mark Evanier reminds us that this sounds more like a personal report than a confirmable news report, and talks about Christensen here.
