A: It was blue. He gave this answer in response to a questionnaire he received in 1964.

A: I have never heard that story and doubt that it is true. There were no motion pictures that used Disneyland as a setting until 40 Pounds of Trouble, starring Tony Curtis, in 1962.

A: I have no doubt that Walt would be proud of the company today. There were so many more things he wanted to do when he died prematurely at age 65.

A: Heavily researched biographies include those by Neil Gabler (Walt Disney: The Triumph of the American Imagination) and Steven Watts (The Magic Kingdom: Walt Disney and the American Way of Life), but the only one by someone who actually knew Walt Disney is Bob Thomas’s Walt Disney: An American Original. Diane Disney Miller’s early biography of her father, written with Pete Martin, The Story of Walt Disney, is long out of print.

A: I do not recall any photos of the interior of the house, and no articles about it in magazines.

A: No, he was not, though that is a common urban legend. Several sources have reported that he had pet mice that played around on his drawing board in Kansas City .

A: There is an article by Michael Crawford on this subject in the Summer 2014 issue of Disney Twenty-Three magazine. Also check out an interactive map on the D23 website at https://d23.com/walts-hollywood

A: I could not find the 1947 photograph you describe at the Walt Disney Archives, nor is there any correspondence between Walt and Jenkins for that year.

A: Some have worked at the Disney Studio, but I am unaware of any working at the parks. The closest we come is Roy Patrick Disney, who, while he was working in Film and TV Post Production at the Studio, helped staff several attractions at Disneyland during cast Christmas parties.

A: No, Walt Disney was not at Disneyland on any of his birthdays from 1955 to 1966. I checked the daily desk diaries from his office.
