Walt Disney's "Fantasia" and "Worlds to Conquer" with Author J.B. Kaufman
Description
Author J.B. Kaufman has been long known as one of the most capable Disney historians to cover work from early on in the company’s history, ranging from Pinocchio to the Silly Symphonies shorts. This tradition continues with Worlds to Conquer: The Art and Making of Walt Disney’s Fantasia, newly released by Weldon Owen, an imprint of Insight Editions, itself part of the Simon and Schuster umbrella. This compendium to the 1940 classic features lots of rarely-seen and heard stories, artwork, and context. On this episode of Notably Disney, JB returns to the podcast to share with host Brett Nachman about the book's development and Fantasia's legacy 85 years later.
Learn more about J.B.'s work via his website. Purchase a copy of Worlds to Conquer on Amazon or wherever you purchase books.
