Donald Duck One of the most popular of the Disney cartoon characters, he made his debut in the Silly Symphony, The Wise Little Hen, on June 9, 1934. His fiery temper endeared him to audiences, and in the 1940s he took over for Mickey Mouse in the number of cartoons reaching the theaters. Eventually, there were 128 Donald Duck cartoons, but he also appeared in a number of others with Mickey Mouse, Goofy, and Pluto. His middle name, shown in a wartime cartoon, was Fauntleroy. The original voice of Donald was Clarence “Ducky” Nash, who was succeeded after 50 years by Disney animator Tony Anselmo. A daily Donald Duck newspaper comic strip began on February 7, 1938.
