A: Yes, Roy O. Disney was one of the executives who signed off on hiring me, and for that I am most grateful. I enjoyed working with Roy very much. He was a very modest, grandfatherly-like gentleman who to me never really seemed comfortable as the head of a large company. One thing he did was to ask me to work, on my own time, on the Disney genealogy; that gave me some one-on-one time with him, and made me admire him even more.
