Biographical History

Walt Disney (born Walter Elias Disney, December 5, 1901, Chicago, Illinois–d. December 15, 1966, Burbank, California), American entrepreneur, animator, voice actor and film producer. He was a pioneer of the American animation industry, and introduced several developments in the production of cartoons. As a film producer, Disney holds the record for most Academy Awards earned by an individual.

As a boy in Chicago, Walt Disney took art classes and got work as a commercial illustrator. He moved to California in the early 1920s and set up the Disney Brothers Studio with his brother Roy Disney. With Ub Iwerks, Walt developed the character Mickey Mouse in 1928, his first highly popular success. Disney also provided the voice for Mickey Mouse in the early years. In the 1950s, Disney expanded into the amusement park industry, and in 1955 he opened Disneyland. Disney died of lung cancer in December 1966.
