Diane Disney Miller Reminisces Life With Walt

This is a nostalgic trip down memory lane by Diane Disney Miller about life with her father, Walt Disney. It includes the reason why she opened the Disney Family Museum far away from LA and the theme parks.

Through the Walt Disney Family Foundation, Miller and the family decided to build a museum about her father. It sits in San Francisco's Presidio, relatively close to her home in Napa Valley. Miller and her children decided they did not want to put the museum in Los Angeles or near the theme parks in Anaheim.

"It's so saturated with Disney that we felt we needed to be away from there," she said.
 This certainly is an appropriate piece at this time with yesterday (July 17) being the 56th Anniversary of the opening of Disneyland.
