My dear friend Jimmie Dodd was the heart and the soul of The Mickey Mouse Club.

At the beginning of 1955 only about 60 percent of American homes had TVs.

As I grew older, I came to feel more responsible for any hardship or trouble my career caused my family.

Animation did not become the dominant form of children's television until the '60s.

I was not prepared to live as a single parent.

You don't have to pound your head after hearing a country song and wonder if you missed something.

Mickey Mouse... is always there-he's part of my life. That really is something not everyone can call their claim to fame.
