    It’s a fair fact that not one person who hasn’t heard or knows of Walt Disney exists. Walter Elias Disney was born on December 5th, 1901. After dropping out of high school to drive ambulances in World War 1, he returned in 1919 to Kansas City, Kansas, for an apprenticeship as a commercial artist. By 1922, Disney has set up a shop with his brother, Roy Disney, and collaborator, Ub Iwerks; they created the business Laugh-o-Grams, which specialized in short cartoons, and the magic began from there and is forever growing stronger. The article “Walter Elias Disney” states, “His (Disney) insistence on technical perfection and his unsurpassed gifts as story editor quickly pushed his firm ahead. The invention of such cartoon characters as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Minnie, and Goofy combined with the daring and innovative use of music, sound, and folk material (as in The Three Little Pigs) made the Disney shorts of the 1930s a phenomenon of worldwide success.”(“Walter Elias Disney”, 1) Some might say Disney’s work was uneducational, was a waste of space, and just plain silly. Walt Disney made a positive impact on America, because of how his entertaining work made life for other bearable, how he had the ability to cause people to change perspective on anything and everything, and by how he introduced technological innovations and transformed animation.…

    Born to Elias and Flora Call on December 5, 1901 in Chicago Illinois, Walter "Walt" Disney later moved to Marceline, Missouri, where he began drawing and selling pictures to his neighbors, family and friends. American Experience, in a documentary episode dedicated to Walt Disney, outlines the disparity between the exuberant young Walt and his withholding, domineering father through a home movie which showed Disney and his parents’ painfully uneasy exchanges while he was interviewing them on their anniversary. Hence when Disney is quoted saying "I'm going to be everything he (his father) isn't," there's a striking frame of reference for the strict character who stirred the adult Disney to crave all the whimsicalities he was denied as a child. In 1911, his family again moved to Kansas City, where he developed a fascination with trains and got a summer job with a railroad company, selling snacks and newspapers to travelers. At that time, his love of trains seemed like a childish fixation, but it soon translated into his work through the 1928 release of “Steamboat Willie,” a short…
