Walsh, Bill (1913-1975) - His name is not that well-known, but Bill Walsh became one of the most successful producers of all time in the 1960s, with such hits as "The Shaggy Dog," "The Absent-Minded Professor," and "Mary Poppins." He had begun at the Disney Studio writing the Mickey Mouse comic strip, and was later asked by Walt to lead the company into the television age by producing and writing the first Disney TV shows, and eventually producing both the spectacularly successful "Davy Crockett" mini-series and the "Mickey Mouse Club."
