Appeared in the “Annette” serial on Disney’s “Mickey Mouse Club” and was close friends with Annette Funicello.
#RIP Shelley Fabares. Much loved for ‘The Donna Reed Show’ and ‘Coach,’ she also had a No. 1 record with “Johnny Angel,” which she often lip-synced. “My worst experience was [when] I did a live local TV show and, needless to say, the record stuck.” hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-…

Great photos of Kevin Kidney presenting about Walt Disney’s “Swiss Family Robinson” (1960) at D23’s weekend event. After working with our colleagues at the Walt Disney Archives, Kevin and his co-authors have finished writing about the making of this film for our HHA Press series!

Kidney stated he has turned in his manuscript for the Hyperion Historical Alliance monograph THE MAKING OF WALT DISNEY’S SWISS FAMILY ROBINSON and expects it to be released early 2027. Best I could capture of the proposed cover.

Don Iwerks saw it all happen, the birth of Disneyland, large format films, and the theme park industry in general. But more importantly, Don was a soft-spoken powerhouse of knowledge and support, always ready to answer questions and share his knowledge with younger staff members. Don was incredibly helpful in the fact-finding process for my upcoming book about the early years of Walt Disney Imagineering. Without his sharp and detailed memory, many important and interesting stories would be lost to time. I will greatly miss him. My thoughts are with Leslie, my colleague Mike at WDI, and the entire Iwerks family.
