Why We Made “Walt Disney”

In this short video, Executive Producer Mark Samels explains how American Experience was able to gain unprecedented access to the Disney archives in order to tell the in-depth story of Walt Disney — without any editorial input or oversight from The Walt Disney Company.
“Walt Disney” premieres September 14 and 15 at 9/8c on PBS.
