Walter Elias Disney "I only hope that we never lose sight of one thing -- that it was all started by a mouse." Walt Disney

Let me start off by posting a brief story of Walt Disney.
Birth: December 5, 1901 in Chicago, Illinois. He was born to a family of poverty and failure.
Parents: Elias and Flora Disney
Education: He was educated in a public school until he dropped out in ninth grade because of his bad grades which resulted from spending all his time drawing.
Died: December 15, 1966 of acute circulatory collapse, caused by lung cancer.
Walter Elias Disney was raised in Marceline, Missouri. Because his father was a failure, he seemed to spare his five children affection. When caught misbehaving, the four boys and one girl were badly beaten.
After Walter quit school, he joined the Red Cross. He drove an ambulance in France during World War I. After the war was over he moved to Kansas City. He took some classes and became a commercial artist. He then moved to California for cartooning and animation. He made short movies, probably the most successful of these being "Oswald the Rabbit".
Disney started drawing Mortimer Mouse when he realized that people enjoyed animal characters the most. His wife Lillian thought the name Mortimer sounded too stuffy and suggested that he use Mickey instead. "Steamboat Willie" was released in 1928. It was the first animated cartoon with sound. Disney himself starred as the voice of Mickey Mouse. As noted by Alfred Hitchcock--"If he didn't like an actor, he could just tear him up".
He eventually created a cast of Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Minnie Mouse, and Goofy. He cast these characters with a creative use of music, sound, and folk material. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs became the first feature-length cartoon. It even received an Academy Award.
His studio rapidly expanded. Eventually it included a training school where he could prepare young artists so that they could continue to entertain people. In 1941, his animators went on strike. They complained because Disney paid them little, was a very demanding boss, and yelled often. When asked about his yelling, he said that he was "just excited". After that was resolved, he started experimenting with nature and live action films. Some television shows that he created included Davy Crockett, Disneyland (now known as the Wonderful World of Disney), and the Mickey Mouse Club. He also created the California Institute of the Arts, which is known as Cal Arts.

By the time of his death in 1966, Disney had made twenty-one feature-length animated films, 493 short subjects, forty-seven live-action films, seven true-life adventure features, 330 hours of Mickey Mouse Club television programs, seventy-eight half-hour Zorro television adventures, and 280 other shows.
Walt Disney's works brought joy to children (and adults) across the world and through the generations. His works' moral values and optimistic perspectives have helped shape the personalities, hopes, and dreams of all our children and will continue to live in their hearts for years to come.
My Childhood Life with Disney (80s-2009)
Disney cartoons or movies had been in all of my life since I was small, I remember Dumbo, Snow White and Bambi are the first ever Disney productions cartoons that I've d watched, since then I was in love with all of the cartoons and animated movies by Walt Disney. I remember when I was in my kindergarten, Mickey Mouse was black and white with 2 just dotted eyes and shirtless, as far as i know Mickey doesn't talk too. I also remember where we used to have the black and bulky as the sized of 2 A4 papers laser disc with an oldschool player and also i would never forget the video tapes of Disney Cartoons that I owned. Bambi and Junglebook was among them. I have to admit that The Little Mermaid is my favourite cartoon till now. Whenever I saw all those Little Mermaid merchandices, books, and cassettes, I will beg my parents to buy it for me. I remember the laser disc shop owner used to called me Little Mermaid untill now, because I frequent borrow Little Mermaid laser disc. I used to imagined I was those Disney princesses. Now that is embaressing to tell you that!
Recently, I have bought few DVDs of Disney cartoons, as I watched them, the idea to talk about Disney in my E-commerce blog pops in my head. That's when I decided that I should write on Disney.
I hope that all of you will get much information from my Disney blog and in the same time you enjoy it by remembering your childhood with Disney too!
