Peter Pan
Peter Pan was more than just a hit movie for Walt, it also reminded him of his childhood. After he first saw ‘Peter Pan’ on stage, young Walt was offered the change to play the Boy Who Wouldn’t Grow Up in a school performance. He said his brother was the one who guided the rope that hoisted him over the stage so it looked like he was flying.

Thelma Howard was the family’s live-in housekeeper and also cook for almost three decades. She was hired back in 1951 and was instantly part of the family. As always, Howards’s annual Christmas gift was the Disneys giving her stock in the company. However, she never did anything with them so by the time she died in 1994, she was a multimillionaire. She left behind almost $4.5 million to go to poor and disabled children, and just about the same amount to her disabled son.
