alt D isney was born in
Chicago on Dec. 5, 1901.
His motion picture milestones
were many, beginning with the “birth” of
Mickey Mouse in a 1928 short titled
“Steamboat W illie,” which synchronized
sound on film for the first time in an
animated motion picture. He pioneered
animation as a form for feature-length
motion pictures with the creation of “Snow
White and the Seven Dwarfs” and turned
animation into a cinematic symphonic con­
cert through “Fantasia.” He pioneered
creation of the multi-plane camera, which
recently earned him a place in the Inven­
tors Hall of Fame.
hrough animated films, live-ac
tion features, television, theme
parks and even Broadway, his
legacy of imagination and entertainment
lives on.
