The Walt Disney Company

The Walt Disney Corporation was founded by brothers Walt and Roy Disney in 1923 as Disney Brothers Studio, with the goal of producing animated cartoons. In the early years, the company struggled to find its footing, producing a few shorts and acquiring small contracts. However, their fortunes began to turn around with the creation of Mickey Mouse in 1928, which became an instant sensation with audiences worldwide.

Throughout the 1930s, the Walt Disney Corporation continued to innovate in the animation space, releasing groundbreaking films such as "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" (1937), "Pinocchio" (1940), and "Fantasia" (1940).

But the ’60s also brought the end of an era: Walt Disney died December 15, 1966.

Plans that Walt left behind carried the Company for a number of years under the supervision of Roy Disney. The Jungle Book in 1967 and The Aristocats in 1970 showed that the Company could still make animated classics, and The Love Bug in 1969 was the highest-grossing film of the year. Disney began work on educational films and materials in a big way with the start of an educational subsidiary in 1969.

After the success of Disneyland, it was only n
