About “My” Disney Events

Hosting the D23 Expo Press

Hosting the D23 Expo Press

My Disney Events is a silly title, since none of the events are ever about me…but I’ve enjoyed a wonderful 25-year association with The Walt Disney Company, first as a full-time employee (OK…”Cast Member”) and currently as a consultant for special events, conferences and conventions, and I like to think that 1) I add value to the events, conferences and seminars I host and/or moderate, and 2) I help bring out the best in my featured guests on behalf of the audience and fans.

Recently, I hosted 4 days of press conferences at the inaugural D23 Expo, a next generation fan and collector’s convention at the Anaheim convention Center. I believe this group offers something for all of the existing “Disnoids” out there and brings the Disney magic to a whole new generation of fans.

That’s something I know a little bit about.

For more than two decades, I’ve hosted a myriad of wonderful events with several Disney Legends, some of whom are no longer with us, and have blogged about a select few of them here. With very few exceptions, no official video exists of these unique experiences, which makes the few photos I have such a treasure trove of memories.

Here are links to my memories (and photos) of some of those great event experiences (just click on the Disney Legend and you’ll be taken to the blog post):

For a video of the parody song I performed prior to the 2004 Fess Parker event, click HERE.

There are a few more past events I need to post about, and I hope there will be more in the future! Look for both right here on “Get it. Got it. Good.”
