Hideo Amemiya

Hideo was known as a man of wit, energy, and vision whose enthusiasm for Disney projects never flagged. His zeal was contagious; he never had trouble getting people on board his projects.

Hideo “Indian” Aramaki

Considering the awards and honors that Indian gathered over the years, it’s hard to believe this culinary expert had no formal training.

Cicely Rigdon

While in Guest Relations, she was responsible for Walt’s apartment above the Main Street Fire Station, and was therefore known as the “Keeper of the Keys.”

Chuck Abbott

Chuck entered the Disneyland on-ramp on August 10, 1955, as a ride operator on Autopia. “In the days when there was no track, and cast members had to be quick on their feet to avoid a collision with oncoming guests,” he once recalled.

Robin Williams

Beginning with his Academy Award^®-nominated performance as Adrian Cronauer in Touchstone Pictures’ Good Morning, Vietnam, Robin starred in an impressive string of Disney films.

Rue McClanahan

The Golden Girls hilariously redefined viewer notions of how respectable older women ought to behave. Rue’s hilarious turn as an unrepentantly oversexed senior citizen endlessly recalling, with her spot-on Southern drawl, escapades from days gone by threatened to steal the show every week.

Charles Boyer

During his 39 years with Disneyland, Charles produced nearly 50 collectible lithographs, as well as a diverse range of artwork for magazine covers, brochures, and flyers—even Company-commissioned oil portraits for retiring employees.

Harry Archinal

“Harry Archinal is one of the great pioneers in the world of international film distribution, as well as a central figure in establishing Disney’s great success in overseas markets.” —Dick Cook

Chuck Boyajian

It was in 1955 that Chuck began his career at Disneyland, when Walt Disney himself put Chuck in charge of the janitorial team, and charged him with the somewhat daunting task of keeping the Magic Kingdom clean. As a result, Chuck developed a reputation for cleanliness and efficiency that had never been seen before in an outdoor entertainment enterprise.

Bill Farmer

“Doing the voice of Goofy has become second nature to me. In the beginning, I had to stop and think what his motivation was, but now he lives inside me.” —Bill Farmer
