The Murakami in Murakami-Wolf-Swenson has passed away

[John Pannozzi]

AFAIK he had nothing to do with TMNT (having left MWS by that point), but this is still sad news. (http://www.cartoonbrew.com/rip/when-the-wind-blows-director-jimmy-murakami-rip-96140.html)

True it was only Fred Wolf but his label is attached to the end credits and has an indirect responsiblity to Turtle Mania! Rest well Mr Murakami!:cry:

Is Swenson still alive?

Is Swenson still alive?

AFAIK, yes. Charles Swenson, interestingly enough, directed the X-rated animation film Dirty Duck, was heavily involved with Rugrats and AAAHH!! Real Monsters, and created Mike, Lu & Og, among other things FYI.

This is definitely sad news. R.I.P., Mr. Murakami.

Another turtle family passed away. :(

R.i.p must feel for any name attached to the original series.

Wait. The "Murakami" wasn't for "Glen Murakami" - (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glen_Murakami)??? I always assumed it was.

RIP another fine Turtles worker
