  • Walt Disney's Pilgrimage Will Fascinate Readers!
    NEWS RELEASE September 26, 2017 WALT DISNEY’S PILGRIMAGE WILL FASCINATE READERS! DETROIT AREA, MICHIGAN—A unique book that geographically chronicles the life of Walt Disney has just been published. Entitled Walt’s Pilgrimage, the nearly 400‐page book was written by Disney researcher and metro Detroiter, Christopher W. Tremblay, Ed.D. The book was inspired from the college course that Tremblay developed and teaches for Western Michigan University’s (WMU) Lee Honors College. In addition, eight WMU students and the WMU Director of Archives contributed to the content. About the Book The book is a combination travel guide, biography, and history book. While there are more than 50 biographies written about Walt Disney, this book takes a unique approach. It enables Disney fans to travel in Walt’s shoes from his birthplace to his gravesite, and everywhere in between throughout North America. It features more than 70 chapters and highlights more than 275 sites connected to Walt Disney throughout the United States (from Alaska to Hawaii), Canada, and Mexico. It offers insights about significant places like Disneyland, various Walt Disney museums – as well as places that never came to fruition – like Mineral King and St. Louis’ proposed Riverfront Square. Foreword Written by a Disney Family Member The Foreword was written by Walt Disney’s son‐in‐law, Ron Miller, who also serves as President of the Board of the Walt Disney Family Museum, which was started by Walt’s daughter, Diane Disney Miller. “I am grateful to Christopher for helping impart the true story of Walt Disney …. I hope that you are inspired by Christopher’s book and by Walt’s story,” stated Ron Miller, who Tremblay first met in 2015.

  • The Walt Disney Family Museum Mourns the Loss of Ron Miller
    PRESS RELEASE The Walt Disney Family Museum Mourns the Loss of Ron Miller San Francisco, CA, Feb 9, 2019—Ron Miller, husband of Diane Disney Miller, son-in-law of Walt Disney, President of the Board of Directors at The Walt Disney Family Museum, and owner of Silverado Vineyards, has passed in Napa, California at the age of 85. At age 21, Ron, a member of the University of Southern California football team, was introduced to 20-year-old Diane Disney on a blind date. They were married in Santa Barbara on May 9, 1954. Ron served in the Army and then played professional football for the Los Angeles Rams before his father-in-law recruited him to work at The Walt Disney Studios. There, he ascended from motion picture and television production roles to CEO of what is now The Walt Disney Company. Ron first started working for Walt as part of the original Disneyland team, where he was employee number six. Ron’s first job in this capacity was serving as second assistant on Old Yeller (1957). Eventually, as CEO, Ron pushed the Company to expand and explore, creating Walt Disney Home Video, Touchstone Pictures, and The Disney Channel. Ron, Diane, and Diane’s mother, Lillian, established Silverado Vineyards in 1981, four years after they purchased the property. This place, near the small town of Yountville, California, became Ron and Diane’s permanent residence. Ron supported Diane’s pursuit in documenting the life and accomplishments of her father, from producing the documentary film Walt: The Man Behind the Myth (2001) to establishing The Walt Disney Family Museum in the Presidio of San Francisco in 2009.

  • MASTER THESIS the Impact of Gender Equality in Film Festival
    MASTER THESIS The Impact of Gender Equality in Film Festival Management on the Female Representation of Awarded Film Directors Student name: Feline Koelemij Student number: 511856 Supervisor: Dr. Christian Handke Second reader: Ms. Liesbeth de Strooper Master Cultural Economics and Entrepreneurship Erasmus School of History, Culture and Communication Erasmus University of Rotterdam Master Thesis Date final version: 15 June 2020 The Impact of Gender Equality in Film Festival Management on the Female Representation of Awarded Film Directors Abstract This thesis investigates the gender equality within film festivals management teams and its influence on the female representation of awarded film directors. As a masculine organisational culture create a gender gap, Hofstede’s dimensions, which measure organisational cultures per country, have been used. Both the researched film festival organisations and the awarded film directors show a gender gap, which is persistent in both Europe and North America. The film festivals which have been established earlier, seem to have more female directors and executives. Film festivals with more female employees also have more female directors and executives. All in all, this research did not find a causal relationship between the gender of film festival management teams and the gender of the awarded film festivals. Nonetheless, it did find that certain aspects of the geographical location, and the longitude of existence of a film festival affects the female representation within the director and executives’
