Disney was found by a marvellous man named Walter Elias Disney. Walter was born on the 5th December 1901 in Chicago; unfortunately he died at the age of 65 in 1966.

  In the early 20’s Walter set up a company with a friend where they made a series of carton strips. Shortly after this Walter began to work for Hollywood where he made his new best friend Mickey Mouse in 1939. Originally the voice of Mickey Mouse was Walter himself but these days Wayne Allwine provides Mickey's distinctive voice.

Walter also produced all his well known characters at Hollywood such as;

bulletSnow white and the seven Dwarfs in 1937
bulletPinocchio in 1940
bulletCinderella in 1950
bulletPeter Pan in 1953.
