I love to travel, I love to meet people, I love to interview people, I love to, you know,

what other career really allows you to travel the world and meet all sorts of people you'd never get to meet.

Your grandfather was Ubb IWorks, who started basically Disney Animation.

Up always said, you know, anyone can draw a mouse.

It's what you do with it that counts.

First thing that comes in mind and

is it seems so honorable that you wanted to tell his story i think it's such a beautiful thing

without up there would have never been a mickey so he literally saved disney animation umb did

that's insane yeah like it's truly insane it is Leslie i, thank you so much for being on my show. I'm so appreciate you being here. A quick resume, because I think it sort of sets up the thing. So you're a very accomplished documentary. Filmmaker. Is that a fair thing to say? Or filmmaker i'll always take accomplished i like that who

wouldn't okay uh just a quick resume on you and this isn't complete this is i'm just cherry picking

a hand behind the mouse the ob i work story um which is also involves your family recycle life the

pixar story dirty oil, Ella Brennan, industrial light

magic creating the impossible, pipe dream, citizen Hearst, the imaginary story, superpowered the DC

story, 100 years of Warner Brothers, and of course, the latest Disney Hancraft. That's quite a resume you got

going. Thanks. It's kept me out of trouble. Did you, did you, did you, did you, did you, I know you

went to film school, but I mean, did you want to be a documentary filmmaker? Because it seems to me

it's a very particular discipline. Yeah, well, not, not really. I went to film school thinking I'd be

doing narrative and never took a documentary class in film school at USC, but I graduated and I had this

burning desire to tell my grandfather's story because the people that were that worked with him

were passing away. And I had never known him. I was, I mean, I, he passed, he was like maybe you were like one year old when he passed away. Yeah. Yeah. So, you know, I thought, well, this will be an opportunity for me to get to know him through other people. Sure. And so I ventured to make my own documentary about him. So that was, that was, so real quick, your grandfather was of Iworks.

Correct.

We started basically Disney animation with Walt, going all the way back to Kansas City and all
