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.
