While Kimball was a brilliant draftsman, he preferred to work on comical characters rather than realistic human designs. Animating came easily to him and he was constantly looking to do things differently. Because of this, Walt Disney called Ward a genius in the book The Story of Walt Disney. While there were many talented animators at Disney, Ward's efforts stand out as unique.

Disney Family Album | Ward Kimball | Disney Animator | Legend | Imagineer | Disneyland | Walt Disney
The Disney Family Album was an original documentary series produced by The Disney Channel in the mid 1980’s. Episodes aired from June 1984 until January 1986 with each episode running about 30 minutes.
For this episode of SamsDisneyDiary, I’m highlighting the second episode in the series, Ward Kimball. From a tour of Ward’s full size train in his backyard, stories of vacationing with Walt, reminiscing about the Firehouse 5 Plus 2, or his amazing toy collection, Ward covers his thoughts behind animating the Three Caballeros and the creating of Jiminy Cricket. It’s an amazing 30 minute journey into the mind of a remarkable man.

The Disney Family Album was an original documentary series produced by The Disney Channel in the mid 1980’s. Episodes aired from June 1984 until January 1986 with each episode running about 30 minutes.
For this episode of SamsDisneyDiary, I’m highlighting the second episode in the series, Ward Kimball. From a tour of Ward’s full size train in his backyard, stories of vacationing with Walt, reminiscing about the Firehouse 5 Plus 2, or his amazing toy collection, Ward covers his thoughts behind animating the Three Caballeros and the creating of Jiminy Cricket. It’s an amazing 30 minute journey into the mind of a remarkable man.

While Kimball was a brilliant draftsman, he preferred to work on comical characters rather than realistic human designs. Animating came easily to him and he was constantly looking to do things differently. Because of this, Walt Disney called Ward a genius in the book The Story of Walt Disney. While there were many talented animators at Disney, Ward's efforts stand out as unique.
She’s got subtle eyes, they seem to tell it all Her mother’s smile and her daddy’s gift for gab Has me stuttering, I have to say that there would be No heaven without you And I'm all strung out, I’m suffering, it’s another day That I can’t believe that she’s everything I want to be, And I know it’s you, ‘cause there’s nothing that I could change, You’d be exactly like you are (I said) Oh oh, oh oh Somehow, she can get me to do that Oh oh, oh oh I couldn’t make this up (I said) You, you do what you do, and you do You do what you do, and you do it so good Yeah, you do She’s got sugar cane on her lips, a cherry bomb for a kiss She’s a gift from God, she’s the enemy There’s got to be anything that I can do For heaven without you I remember when I saw your face in a crowded room And all I could see was you and your Southern grace I nearly died because I found you Exactly like you are (I said) Oh oh, oh oh… (I said) You… (There would be no heaven without you)
