(July 17, 2009) Marty Sklar, Executive Vice President and Walt Disney Imagineering Ambassador holds his tribute window at Disneyland in Anaheim, Calif., on Friday, the 54th anniversary of the opening of Disneyland.
In a tradition begun by Walt Disney, second-story windows along Main Street USA pay tribute to the men and women who were instrumental in the creation and operation of Disneyland. Sklar’s window, unveiled this morning, can be seen above City Hall at Town Square in Disneyland. Sklar, who began his Disney career in June 1955 as editor of “The Disneyland News,” went on to work personally with Walt Disney on the creation of landmark Disney attractions for the 1964 World’s Fair and leading the design of Walt Disney’s final vision, Epcot.
