ickey Mouse's girlfriend made her film debut in "Steamboat Willie"
on November 18, 1928. She did not have her own cartoon series, but appeared
in 73 cartoons with Mickey Mouse and Pluto. She has been a popular character
at the Disney theme parks, and 1986 was declared Minnie's year, giving
her much-deserved recognition. The first voice of Minnie Mouse was Marcellite
Garner, from the Ink and Paint Department at the Disney Studio. She was
succeeded by several others from that department, and currently the voice
is supplied by Russi Taylor. Minnie Mouse has two nieces, Melody and Millicent,
who appeared in a few comic book stories. Favorite sayings: "Why,
hello!" "Aren't you sweet!" "Yoo-hoo!" "Oh,
Mickey ..." |
