Author Andrew Kiste Unveils the History of Disney and Ford at the 1964-1965 New York World’s Fair

Andrew Kiste, the author of Walt Disney and the 1964-1965 New York World’s Fair: TravelMagic, unveils details about the latest book in a series that explores the monumental pavilions that The Walt Disney Company created attractions for within the unforgettable American exposition. In his latest release, Andrew discusses the partnership between Ford and Disney that would provide the foundation for future attractions like the PeopleMover and the Primeval World scene on the Disneyland Railroad. Kiste speaks with Notably Disney host Brett Nachman about uncovering long-forgotten artifacts from the pavilion's development, explaining how the Magic Skyway attraction operated, and engaging with individuals who worked the pavilion nearly six decades ago.
