Award
Disney Legends
is a
Hall of Fame
award that is awarded by
The Walt Disney Company
to individuals who "[have] made a significant impact on the Disney legacy." The honor was established in 1987, and was traditionally awarded annually during a special private ceremony. Since 2009, it has been awarded on a biennial basis during Disney's
D23 Expo
.
[1]
Criteria
[
edit
]
Recipients are chosen by a selection committee, formerly appointed and chaired by Disney Legend
Roy E. Disney
,
Walt Disney
's nephew, former vice chairman and director
emeritus
of The Walt Disney Company. The committee consists of long-time Disney executives, historians, and other authorities. Besides the award statuette itself, each honoree is represented by a bronze
commemorative plaque
featuring the recipients' handprints and signature if they were living when inducted, or simply an image of the statuette emblem if the induction was posthumous. The plaques are placed on display in
Legends Plaza
at the
Walt Disney Studios
in
Burbank, California
, across from the
Michael D. Eisner Building
.
The award
[
edit
]
Imagineer
Andrea Favilli
created the Disney Legends award, which is handcrafted from bronze each year. The award depicts the arm of
Mickey Mouse
holding a star-tipped wand.
Disney describes the award as follows:
The Disney Legends award has three distinct elements that characterize the contributions made by each talented recipient.
The Spiral
... stands for imagination, the power of an idea.
The Hand
... holds the gifts of skill, discipline and craftsmanship.
The Wand and the Star
... represent magic: the spark that is ignited when imagination and skill combine to create a new dream.
[2]
The first Disney Legends committee consisted of
Dave Smith
; Arlene Ludwig;
Marty Sklar
, Randy Bright;
Jack Lindquist
; Sharon Harwood; Art Levitt; Shelley Miles; Paula Sigman; Doris Smith; and Stacia Martin.
[3]
In 2017,
Muppet performer
Steve Whitmire
alleged that the company offered him "consolation prizes" including the Disney Legends award in return for keeping quiet about the details surrounding his termination and/or resignation depending on who tells his story.

A 14 foot sculpture replica of the award exists outside the entrance of
Disneyland Paris
. It was dedicated and unveiled in 1997 and re-dedicated in 2002.
