Marc Davis - Pirates of the Caribbean - Haunted Mansion.

Hi there, :flower3:

May I present myself, my name is Max. Usually, I'm active at the Disneyland Paris Trip Planning & Community Board.

Today, I came over to the Disneyland Community Board to show you an article (http://designingdisney.blogspot.com/2010/04/wdi-collection-marc-davis.html) (I wrote myself) that could be interesting for American Disney fans as well.

It is about the career and artwork of Walt Disney Imagineer and Animator 'Marc Davis'. He is the one who created the most popular characters (such as Bambi, Brier Rabit, Cinderella, Tinker Bell, Sleeping Beauty, Maleficent and Cruella de Vil) of the Disney family and played a key role in the production of many Disney’s classic theme park attractions.

I'm glad to see Marc Davis remembered here. I had the pleasure of meeting him once - he signed my Tinkerbell cell and drew wings on her for me!
Alice Davis - his very talented wife and fellow Imagineer - will be at the 1313 club's big Sept 18th event at the Disneyland hotel.

(you'll need to scroll down a bit - although the links to past events will give you an idea what we do - this one will be comparable to the Golden Horseshoe Celebration)
