Happy Birthday, Walt Disney!

(born: Dec.5,1901 - died: Dec.15,1966)


Born December 5, 1901, in Chicago, Illinois, Walt Disney started a small animation studio in 1922 where he and a partner made one and two-minute animated advertising films for distribution to local movie theatres. By the1930s, he was famous as a pioneer of animated cartoon films and as the creator of such cartoon characters as Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. Disneyland opened in 1955, and Walt Disney World, which was under construction at the time of his death, opened in 1971.
