Ub Iwerks' creations are legendary, but in The Hand Behind the Mouse, we get to see for the first time, the intimate and personal story of the man himself -- Ub Iwerks.. Without Ub Iwerks, we could not have experienced the thrill of the Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean or Circlevision to the same extent. Come meet the man you have known for all of your life! You may not know Ub Iwerks by name, but you certainly know his accomplishments. Walt Disney's friend, partner, adversary and alter ego all rolled into one, Iwerks was responsible for creating Mickey Mouse, adding color, sound and 3-dimensionality to cartoons and basically revolutionizing live-action films with his inventions, innovations and sheer brilliance. Without Ub Iwerks, we could not have the technology available to allow the current generations of filmmakers -- people like George Lucas and Steven Spielberg -- to create worlds and effects that are truly unbelievable. Without Ub Iwerks, we would not have the joy of seeing Donald Duck dancing with Aurora Miranda, Hayley Mills singing with herself or the Birds terrorizing Tippi Hedren in Alfred Hitchcock's masterwork

If you think it was Walt, go stand in the corner--and read this book.You'd think a man with a name like Ub Iwerks would have no difficulty being remembered, but his invaluable contribution to the Disney studio is buried in dusty archives. His cartoons as an independent now occupy the bottom of the discount video bin at Wal-Mart. Animation historians who do m. the hand behind the mouse Kevin Dixon an outstanding documentory by a son about his father who had a major impact on the animation world. Some of this history I remember and I found very reminisant. A must read for Disney fans.. Great Book, but Where are the Pictures? "The Hand Behind the Mouse" is an excellent book, and one that you'll find hard to put down once you start reading it, but it does have one critical failing - not enough pictures.To be sure, there are plenty of photos of Ub in his early days with Walt and pictures of Ub later on with his family, but it seems that a book about a man whom Walt Disney himself called "the greatest animator in the world" should have more than a few pages of family photos. It should have illustrations of some of the characters it talks about Ub having a hand in - character
