Revisiting the Dentist

Back in April 2008, we took a visit to the Dentist on Main Street U.S.A. in Parc Disneyland, Dr. Bitz. Well, on my most recent visit I realised I needed to take another trip to the dentist - nothing serious, just a check-up!

So, let's have another look at the dentist and some of the windows in more detail...
As I previously mentioned, this window represents some of the Imagineers that worked in the creation of this beautiful park. Each one helped with the five lands in the Parc.

J.Burke - Jeff Burke was the Imagineer in charge of Frontierland, and helped bring the Wild Wild West to the countryside of France. He was largely involved in the creation of Phantom Manor, which has a very strong link to frontierland throughout.

T.Delaney - Tim Delaney was the Show Producer for Discoveryland within the Parc, helping to bring the novels of Jules Verne to life. The Imagineer had previously worked on The Living Seas in EPCOT, and later went on to Disney's California Adventure.

T.Morris - A show producer of Fantasyland, the Imagineer Tim Morris later went on to become the Vice President and Executive Producer of Hong Kong Disneyland. He also had a large hand in the eventual appearance and design of Le Chateau de la Belle au Bois Dormant.

C.Tietz - Chris Tietz was the show producer for Adventureland in the Parc, and had previously worked on classic attractions such as Star Tours. Chris later went on to be part of the Concept Design team on the Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage in Disneyland (Anaheim).

E.Sotto - Eddie Sotto worked on Main Street U.S.A. in Disneyland Paris - which, considering how much this blog focuses on this particular Main Street, should make him DF'82's honorary mascot! However, Eddie was also a Senior Vice President of Concept Design at Walt Disney Imagineering.
