Fowler, Joseph (1894-1993)
- "The Admiral,"
as he was known, came to Disney in 1954 after
a long and successful career in the Navy, to help
Walt build Disneyland. Famed for his "can do"
attitude, Fowler was not only a builder, but he
was involved in the administration of the park.
Well into his 70s, he oversaw the construction of
the Walt Disney World Resort, one of the
largest private construction projects ever
attempted.
