It seems appropriate to kick off The Disney Book Club with a biography of the man himself.
While there is a wide range of books available on the subject, Neal Gabler’s 900 page biography (including 200 pages of notes and over 30 pages of photographs) is the definitive portrait of one of the most important cultural figures and beloved storytellers in American history.
In this extremely thorough biography, Neal Gabler shows us how over the course of two decades Disney revolutionized the entertainment industry. In a way that was unprecedented and later widely imitated, he built a synergistic empire that combined film, television, theme parks, music, book publishing, and merchandise.
Although every period of Walt's life is depicted in exacting detail, the core of this Disney book is in the early years of Disney’s animation studio including the process of creating classic hits like Snow White, Fantasia, and Bambi.
If you're looking for a Walt Disney biography, look no further: this one outshines any previous one both in scope and in detail. A must-read for true Disney fans who want to learn more about who created it all.
