Two captivating manuscripts in one book:
Walt Disney: A Captivating Guide to the Life of an American Entrepreneur and Pioneer of Animated Cartoon Films
Salvador Dalí A Captivating Guide to the Life of a Famous Spanish Painter Who Is Known for His Surrealist Paintings and Flamboyant Personality
A man truly lives on even after his death if he leaves a legacy that survives him for years to come. Albert Einstein, Harriet Tubman, Karl Marx, Mozart, Marie Curie, Van Gogh, Marsha Johnson--there are so many examples of men and women whose deeds revolutionized history and paved the way for future generations to thrive. One name that stands out in this regard in the world of entertainment is that of Walt Disney. He may not have been a pioneer per se of animation or films, but he was more like the Shakespeare of his genre--he took inspiration from here, there, and everywhere, and he punched it together to create something that is relevant even today.
Salvador Dalí was a master of the surreal. His paintings are known as "dream-photographs" snapshots of nightmarish scenes brought to life in stunning detail. Dalí was a technical virtuoso, but unlike the grand masters he admired--like Johannes Vermeer and Diego Velázquez--he chose to use his skill to depict the unreal and the absurd. Anyone who has seen his famous painting of the melting watches, The Persistence of Memory, knows that his paintings are as confusing as they are striking.
