MONTY MALDOVAN

I remember when I was about eight or nine years old, my parents took my two younger sisters and I to the drive-in to see Walt Disney’s Masterpiece - BAMBI. From that point on I was hooked and it’s all their fault!

When I was young I used to escape to my room and draw all day. I would draw all kinds of things but mostly animals and Disney characters. Who knew I’d still be doing that today! After completing my degree in Art from Penn State University, I moved to Florida to see what the Walt Disney World Resort had to offer. I started my Disney career in ’92 as a seasonal Cast Member for the Easter parade. After that I was re-assigned to a Full-time position at the Disney-MGM Studios as a tour guide for the Disney-MGM Studios Backlot Tour. After about two years, I transferred to the Ink and Paint Department. From there I moved my way up and obtained a job as a Final Checker. This is where I had the chance to make one of my dreams come true and work on an animated film…Walt Disney’s MULAN. Now I am living out my biggest dream of being a Disney Artist. Working with the Disney Design Group and being part of this diverse, creative and talented group of artists is probably the most rewarding and exciting thing to have happened to me.

In my ten years with Disney, I have seen, learned, experienced and achieved more than I ever thought possible. And I thank Walt Disney and my parents.
