He was born on December 5, 1901 in Chicago (USA).
When he turned 16 he left school, but spent some periods in art academies in his hometown and in
Kansas City, Missouri.
In 1923, began producing cartoons in Hollywood with his brother Roy O. Disney. Between 1926 and
1928 made a series of drawings, Oswald the Rabbit, for Universal Pictures.
Steamboat Willie (Willie steam, 1928), which produced by his own company, meant the appearance
of Mickey Mouse his first celebrity, and the onset of the talkies in cartoons. The lucky break came
on 18 November that year debuted the animated short he wrote. It was the debut of the
legendary character of Mickey Mouse, who had left his first name, Mortimer.
As happened to the works of all the great masters, it was rumored that the endearing mouse did
not leave the pencils Walt, but nobody could ever prove it. Since then, Mickey has become a
symbol, even, as published in a U.S. survey, was the most famous person in the world. One of the
anecdotes unknown is that the Walt himself provided the voice of Mickey in more than a hundred
titles.

During the 50s and 60s Walt Disney Productions became one of the largest film production, while
Disney was trying to keep as much artistic control as possible. The company addressed the
publication of children's literature and comics most of them featuring characters Donald Duck and
dog Pluto.
Anti declared, Walt Disney was not a great artist (in fact not picked up a pencil since 1929), but a
great businessman who knew how to create an empire. In 1955, Walt Disney Productions launched a
gigantic park, Disneyland in Anaheim, California. His reconstructions of historical and spectacular
attractions made it a tourist center of the first order. Along the same line, opened in
1971Disneyworld, near Orlando, and then Eurodisney, near Paris.
At the same time, were able to make documentaries like The Living Desert (1953) or The Secrets
of Life (1956), and also in the early fifties adventure films with real actors like Treasure Island
(1950), Robin Hood (1951), The Shaggy Dog (1959), A AbsentMinded (1961) and Mary Poppins
(1964).
The animated films highlights of this period were Peter Pan (1953), The Sword in the Stone (1963)
and Aladdin (1992), The Lion King (1994), Pocahontas (1995), Toy Story (1996), The Hunchback of
Notre Dame (1996) and a new version of the classic 101 Dalmatians entitled 101 Dalmatians (more
alive than ever), British actress Glenn Close in the role of Cruella de Vil.
They have also produced television series "Davy Crockett", "The club Mickey" and "The Wonderful
World of Disney". Walt is the person most Oscars has grabbed a total of 32. Undoubtedly the
most special moment was the delivery of an honorary Oscar for the creation of 'Snow White and
