Q: What was the first question you got? When did you get your first question? Have you got a question you could not answer, if so what was it? How long have you worked for Disney? When you were hired, was Walt Disney around? What is your favorite Disney ride?

A: When I first started my column, in the Disney Channel Magazine in 1983, nobody knew about it yet, so I had to make up the first questions myself. Once the columns began being published, then the questions started coming in. There are many questions we receive that cannot be answered; often one would have to ask a person who worked on a particular film or project, and they are no longer around. I worked for Disney for more than 40 years, but did not start until a couple years after Walt Disney died. My favorite Disney attraction is Pirates of the Caribbean at Disneyland.
