Walt Disney is an American hero. From Mickey Mouse to Disneyland, he changed the face of American culture. His is a success story like no other: a man who developed animated film into an art form and made a massive contribution to the folklore of the world.

After years of research, respected Hollywood biographer Bob Thomas produced a definitive biography of the man behind the legend of Disney: the unschooled cartoonist from Kansas City who went bankrupt on his first movie venture and developed into the genius who produced unmatched works of animation, and ultimately was the creative spirit of an international entertainment empire that has enchanted generations. Walt Disney: An American Original: Commemorative Edition has been published in celebration of the 100th anniversary of The Walt Disney Company.

In honor of the classic film's 30th anniversary, this one-of-a-kind retrospective details the making of Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas. Featuring interviews with the filmmakers and rare images from the Disney and Tim Burton art collections, this deep dive into the making of the beloved classic includes never-before-released art and photography. This visually stunning coffee table book is a must for collectors and fans alike.
