Career

[edit]

Huber began working in animation in 1969 as an assistant toHanna-Barbera onThe Perils of Penelope Pitstop.[1] He later left Hanna-Barbera to work forRuby-Spears, a job he held for 15 years.[2]

Huber returned to Hanna-Barbera in 1990 to work on2 Stupid Dogs and the short-lived seriesFish Police. He was soon hired by producerBuzz Potamkin to supervise production onFred Seibert's then-upcomingWorld Premiere Toons shorts program (later namedWhat a Cartoon!) onCartoon Network.[3] The series consisted of 48 animated shorts and spawned new creator-driven original programming for the network, includingDexter's Laboratory (the show paid homage to Huber, naming the titular character's school as Huber Elementary),Cow and Chicken,Johnny Bravo,I Am Weasel,The Powerpuff Girls, andCourage the Cowardly Dog.[1]

AfterTurner Broadcasting merged with Time Warner in October 1996, Huber left Hanna-Barbera once again to become an executive producer on Seibert's other animated shorts showcase,Oh Yeah!

It premiered on March 22, 2002, with the highest ratings for a new show premiere in the network's history at the time.[5] He continued to work with big idea cartoon incubators, consulting on Seibert'sRandom! Cartoons, which spawnedEric Robles'Fanboy & Chum Chum (in which he also directed the voice actors),Adventure Time byPendleton Ward and Ward'sBravest Warriors. He continued to be involved withBravest Warriors as a consultant to show runnerBreehn Burns and as an animation director.

In 2004 Huber launched his own production company called Animotion Works, located inBurbank, California. The company has since produced theeducationalchildren's television seriesDanger Rangers forPBS, which ran from September 3, 2005, to December 26, 2006.
