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.
