520 Soon after the birth of Mickey Mouse, one animator raised
the Disney Studio far beyond Walt's expectations. That
animator also led a union war that almost destroyed it.
Art Babbitt animated for the Disney studio throughout the
1930s and through 1941, years in which he and Walt were
jointly driven to elevate animation as an art form, up
through Snow White, Pinocchio, and Fantasia. But as
America prepared for World War II, labor unions spread
across Hollywood. Disney fought the unions while Babbitt
embraced them. Soon, angry Disney cartoon characters
graced picket signs as hundreds of animation artists went
out on strike. Adding fuel to the fire was Willie Bioff,
one of Al Capone's wiseguys who was seizing control of
Hollywood workers and vied for the animators' union. Using
never-before-seen research from previously lost records,
including conversation transcriptions from within the
studio walls, author and historian Jake S. Friedman
reveals the details behind the labor dispute that changed
animation and Hollywood forever.
