From Mickey Mouse to Star Wars and Beyond: How the Walt Disney Company Conquered the Entertainment Universe Online
Presented by Brian Rose via ZOOM.
Over the last nine decades, the Walt Disney Company has transformed every facet of the entertainment business-from the creation of feature length cartoons like Snow White, Bambi, and Pinocchio, to television programming like The Wonderful World of Disney, from theme parks that span the globe to Broadway musicals like The Lion King, from challenging Netflix with their new streaming service Disney+, to ownership of the greatest collection of franchise movies (from Star Wars to Toy Story to The Avengers) under the control of a single studio in Hollywood history. This presentation examines this remarkable story of creativity and media growth and looks at how the Walt Disney Company grew from a small cartoon studio in 1923 to become the most powerful force in worldwide entertainment.
