Donald Duck

The Art of Walt Disney’s Donald Duck

I don’t know anybody who hasn’t heard of that lovable cartoon character, Donald Duck.

Did you know that Donald Duck’s real name is Donald Fauntleroy Duck. He is my favorite cartoon character created by Walt Disney and the Walt Disney Company. Donald Duck is a typical white duck with an orange beak, legs and feet. You will usually only see him in his sailor shirt, cap, red bow tie and no trousers. He has been voted as the third most popular cartoon character of all time with just Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny topping him.

We can’t help loving him, mostly for his unique personality – his impatience and his explosive temper. Although he is
Mickey Mouse’s best friend, they couldn’t be more different in character.

Donald Duck’s birthday was originally recognized as the 9th
of June 1934, which was the day he made his first appearance in a supporting role in the film, The Wise Little Hen. His birthday is now given as the 13th of March 1942 as he states in his film The Three Caballeros which was released in 1944. More often he is said to have been born on Friday the 13th, as he always seems to have bad luck or get himself into trouble.

Der Fuehrer’s Face was the Movie that Donald Duck won his first Academy Award for. During the 1940’s he featured in more cartoons than his best friend Mickey Mouse.

One of the most famous things about Donald Duck is his angry and nasal voice. This was done by Clarence “Ducky” Nash right up to his death in 1985. Since 1985 the voice has been done by Tony Anselmo, who was trained by Clarence for the role. Donald Duck’s screen personality was created by Dick Lundy, who is a wonderful animator.

Donald also has an extensive cartoon family including his nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie, who cause him even more irritation. His Fathers name is Quackmore Duck and his Mother is Hortense Mcduck. He has a wealthy uncle, Scrooge McDuck, another uncle Ludwig Von Drake, an Aunt Bertie Duck, a cousin Gladstone Gander and even a Grandma that lives with his nephews in Duckburg. He has a twin sister Della Thelma Duck, whom we don’t see that often and a brother Duffy Duck.

There are a number of quotes that Donald Duck says on a regular basis that have become famous. They include, “Oh, yeah?”, “Hiya, toots!”, “Aw, phooey!”, “Nothin’ to it!” and his most famous, “Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!”

Love him or hate him, everyone enjoys a Donald Duck Cartoon.
