Good afternoon! This day in Disney history, Feb 20th, 1986. WED, (Walter Elias Disney) Enterprises, becomes "Walt disney Imagineering". WED was 1st created in December 1952 to oversee the design of Disneyland. The term "Imagineering" is a portmanteau word that combines "imagination" & engineering." The term was coined by Richard F. Sailer in an article titled "BRAINSTORMING IS IMAGINation enginEERING" which was written for the National Carbon Company Management Magazine in 1957. The term gravitated to Disney by unknown means. Imagineers possess a broad range of skills & talents, 140 different job titles fall under the banner of "Imagineering", including illustrators, architects, engineers, lighting designers, show writers & graphic designers. Can you name more?

"Imagineering" is such the quintessential Disney term!! I love that word. Disneyland has so much Imagineering everywhere, from attractions to hidden Mickeys! One of the best examples of this is Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room, where the "tiki room birds sing every day!" Over 200 animatronic birds, flowers, and tikis. What an awesome attraction where Imagineers made inventions! Thank you SMK! This is such a huge part of Disney!! You're awesome!!! - MyPark 944.4 #91 1:21PM

Wow, 140 different job titles! That's amazing, such talented people. Thanks for sharing Duchess! 😊 - MinnieMousewife 570.4 #194 8:01PM
