Had Don Hahn just produced Disney\\u2019s Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King he\\u2019d have earned a place in movie history\\u2014and our hearts. But over several decades he\\u2019s done so much more: writing books (like Before Ever After and Yesterday\\u2019s Tomorrow: Disney\\u2019s Magical Mid-Century), directing documentaries (like Waking Sleeping Beauty) and keeping Disney history alive. Not bad for a guy who started out as a messenger on the Burbank studio lot. Don is self-deprecating and funny but his love for Disney is true-blue, as Leonard and Jessie can attest.
