ANNOUNCING WALT’S PEOPLE – VOLUME 3

On May 5, 2006, Xlibris released Walt’s People –
Talking Disney with the Artists who Knew Him – Volume
3, the third volume of a series of books that aims to
re-animate the field of Disney research.

The Walt's People book series, edited by Didier Ghez,
is a collection of the best interviews ever conducted
with Disney artists.

Contributors to the series include noted Disney
historians Robin Allan, Paul F. Anderson, Mike
Barrier, J.B. Kaufman, Jim Korkis, Mike Lyons, Celbi
Pegoraro, John Province, Thorkil B. Rasmussen,
Christian Renaut, Dave Smith, Wes Sullivan, and
Christian Ziebarth.

Those key Disney experts, by accepting to contribute
to the project will give readers access to the source
material they used for their works, published for the
first time in its entirety. We are also uncovering
every day new or quasi-unknown material: a forgotten
interview with Hugh Harman, lost tapes of talks with
Paul Murry, rare conversations with Al Hubbard, Dick
Huemer and many others that will be released in the
upcoming volumes of the series.

And now, just a glimpse at what’s ahead in Volume 3 to
wet your mouth... 

Walt's People - Volume 3 features in-depth interviews
with artists James Algar, Lee Blair, Jack Bradbury,
Andreas Deja, Joe Grant, Ben Sharpsteen, Bill Justice,
Volus Jones, Ward Kimball, Burny Mattinson, Floyd
Norman, Bill Peet, and Tony Strobl. These interviews
discuss, among many other subjects, the infamous 1941
strike, the creation of the Donald Duck shorts, the
birth of Chip ‘n Dale, the making of The True Life
Adventures, and life at the Studio “after Walt.” It
contains hundreds of new stories about the Studio and
its artists and should delight even the most serious
historians and enthusiasts.

Walt's People is a notable new source of historical
treasures and should contribute to give new energy to
the world of Disney research!

2006, the book is available for sale on Xlibris.com
