Walt Disney the man was a simple catroonist who loved making Cartoons. He enjoyed bringing entertainment to people and that's what lead him to become a legend. He wanted to serve his country by joining Red Cross and he was the last person on a list of fifty to be able to go over to the war and heal returning soldiers at the war's end. That's a bit about him, it that was what you were looking for. If you want more information, fell free to visit my message board.

Walt Disney liked being the class clown. He once said that he would do anything for attention. His schoolmates in Marceline, Missouri, loved his performances. Once he caught a field mouse and made a leash for it out of string. He waltzed into class and paraded his new pet around the room. Somebody saw the little critter and screamed. Walt's teacher marched right over there and put a stop to it by punishing him. He did not care. He and his mouse were stars for the day. Walt Disney did not know it then. But one day another mouse named Mickey would make him famous all over the world.


On December 5,1901 Walter Elias Disney was born in an upstairs bedroom of a two story cottage on North Tripp Avenue in Chicago.

Walt's father Elias had built the house himself. Walt's mother Flora was trained as a teacher but she gave up a career to raise her five children, three older brothers and one younger sister: Herbert Arthur Disney, Roy Oliver Disney, Raymond Arnold Disney, and Ruth Flora Disney. She was as friendly and warm as her husband was short tempered and stern. By the time Walt was four the neighborhood was growing rough. So the family moved to a farm in Marceling, Missouri. It was the happiness time in Walt's childhood. Walt loved his new home. Even though Marceling was a small town, it was still exciting for Walt to head down to Main Street with all its little stores. Around the farm were weeping willows apple peach and plum trees. Walt watched rabbits squirrels opossums foxes and raccoons scurry around the pond. He liked to ride on pigs even though he often fell off and landed in mud, and he and his friends often trotted on Charley the old farm horse. Charley charged through the trees without caring about his riders. Walt had to just keep from bonking his head on the branch. Walt's parents and older brothers Herbert, Raymond and Roy were too busy with farm chores to take Walt to school. So he did not start until he was almost seven. By then his younger sister, who was five at the time, was ready for school to. Walt said that starting school with his younger sister was the most embarrassing things that could happen to a fellow. After school Walt fished and skinny-dipped. In the winter he went sledding or skating on a frozen creek. On Sundays the Disneys visited neighbors. Sometimes Elias played fiddle. It was one of the few times he saw his father having a good time. Walt always wanted to entertain people to make them have a good time.

He is most famous for creating Mickey Mouse! He gave life to a host of characters, some of his earliest being Donald Duck and Pluto the dog. His cartoons have been around for ages, he was quite active against the war, his early cartoons had subtle references towards the war. Over all he created lovable characters, and set the foundations for the legacy that is Disney today. Including films, cartoons, holiday parks and cruises and computer games.
