For the development of this evidence, we will take as an example
the life of an iconic character of the twentieth century, Mr. Walter
Elias Disney was born on December 5, 1901 in Chicago, Illinois. The
fourth of five children born to Elias and Flora Disney, his child Hood
was spent amid economic hards hipsand under the severity of his
father, a carpenter by profession, who tried his luck in all kinds of
businesses with out ever managing to improve his battered
economy. Eternally despised by his father, Walt grew up very close
to his mother, a former teacher of German descent, and his brother
Roy, eight years older than him. In 1906, Elias Disney decided to
start a new life on a farm near the small town of Marceline, Missouri,
where Walt discovered nature and animals. It was also then that his
interest in drawing was born, which he shared with his younger
sister, Ruth. His dream was to become an artist for the Kansas City
Star, the news paper he had delivered as a child, but he found work
as an apprentice atan advertising agency, the Pesmen-Rubin
Commercial Art Studio. With a salary of $50 a month, in that job he
met Ub I werks, a young man his own age and exceptionally gifted
at drawing, with whom he became Friends. In 1923, Disney
emigrated to Hollywood. The booming film industry hadturned
Hollywood into a land of promise. Disney believed that with his
experience as a camera man he would get work as a director, but no
studio wanted his services, so he decided to set up his own
company again with his brother Roy as a partner. On October 16,
1923, the Disney Brothers Studio signed its first important contract,
but still insufficient to face its financial difficulties.
Already then, Walt showed what would later become a constant in
his company: that he was capable of resorting to any stratagem to
get the business ahead. In 1924, Ubbe I werks joined them and Walt
was able to stop working as an animator to devote himself to the
area for which he had always been most qualified: the creation of
characters and plots and directing. Mr. Walt's lucky break came on
November 18 of that year, when the animated short film he wrote
himself was released. It was the debut of the my thical character
Mickey Mouse, who had already abandoned his first name. Disney
provided the original voice of Mickey from 1928 to 1947. As it
happened to the Works of all great geniuses, there was a rumor that
the endearing mouse did not come from Walt's pencils, but no one
could everprove it. Sincé then, Mickey became a symbol, even,
according to an American survey, the best-known character in the
world.
One of the most un known anecdotes is that Walt himself lent his
voice to Mickey in more than a hundredtitles.
