Herb is the founder, author, webmaster, chief executive, and chief bottle washer for World Of Walt – and he is the Disney enthusiast who put this site together. Ever since his parents took him to the Magic Kingdom on a family vacation as a youngster, he has had an interest in the magic that Disney creates for families.
When Walt Disney opened Disneyland in Anaheim, California in 1955, it was the ultimate escape to a world of family-friendly fantasy and adventure. But it wasn’t long before the outside world began to encroach upon the Disney property, limiting the possibilities for expansion and interfering with the uncompromised retreat that Walt had envisioned.
