WALT DISNEY
Walt Disney was a animator, cartoonist, producer, director and entrepreneur. He is regarded as one of the most creative men of the 20th century. He is also the individual with the most awards and nominations with a total of 22 Academy Awards from 59 nominations.
Walt Disney was born on December 5, 1901 at Tripp Avenue in Chicago. He was interested in drawing at a young age.He wanted to become a cartoonist and newspaper artist in the future. So he started by drawing cartoons focussing on World War I for the school newspaper.
Disney's love of drawing and simple, charismatic artwork developed when he was a young boy. In his spare time, he would draw stylized versions of the farm animals near his home, drawing praise from his parents and neighbors. Disney's childhood was filled with movement – his parents moved from farms to cities numerous times during his childhood.
Did you know that there are five Walt Disney theme parks and one due to open in 2014. Disneyland in Anaheim was the first constructed in 1955, complete with adventure park and luxurious hotels. Then came the famous Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando in Florida which opened in 1971 complete with shopping centres, adventure parks and water parks.
The Walt Disney brand is about family fun that offers a whole world of excitement and activities, a place where families can go on holiday in a fantasy city and enjoy time together. This is what the Disneyland theme parks were built on and what has made them such a success today.
