You make not recognize the face, but you know the name. As one half of one of the, if not the best ever, cartoon animators, Joseph Barbera and his parter William Hanna were behind some of the best known and best loved characters in all of cartoondom. Among these are:

Tom & Jerry
Yogi Bear(and Boo Boo)
The Flintstones
And produced the following:
Super Friends

And many many more that I cannot come up with off the top of my head.
