Grandma is an American animated character, created by Tex Avery, who appears in a couple of MGM short films. She is a fictional oversexed wealthy and amorous socialite who falls head over heels for the Wolf who — in vain — tries to escape her. Grandma debuted in MGM's Red Hot Riding Hood, a modern-day variant of the fairy tale "Little Red Riding Hood".
She appeared in two animated shorts in the Golden age of American animation.
Impact[]
Grandma has gone on to inspire many lusty animated women over the years. Most famously Lena Hyena from Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
