Il comunicato ufficiale di Burbank sull’argomento così recita, indicando anche tutte le altre “Leggende Disney” di quest’anno:
2011–Television icon Regis Philbin, Muppets creator Jim Henson, the extraordinary actresses who vocally brought to life many modern-day Disney Princesses including Jodi Benson (Ariel from The Little Mermaid), Paige O’Hara (Belle from Beauty and the Beast), Lea Salonga (singing voices of Jasmine from Aladdin and Mulan from Mulan), Linda Larkin (speaking voice of Jasmine from Aladdin), and Anika Noni Rose (Princess Tiana from The Princess and the Frog) plus other equally impressive contributors to the Disney legacy will be named and honored as official Disney Legends during the D23 EXPO at 11 a.m. on Friday, August 19, in the Anaheim Convention Center Arena.
La bio “ufficialmente fornita” della Leggenda:
GUY WILLIAMS was an acclaimed actor who starred in the hit Disney television series Zorro and two feature films, The Sign of Zorro and Zorro the Avenger.
Williams’ charming portrayal of Zorro helped galvanized the character in the public’s imagination and made the series a favorite among the Baby Boomer generation and beyond. His other popular television credits include the hit series Bonanza and Lost in Space.
A questo link una dettagliata spiegazione così intitolata: MAKING THE SIGN OF ZORRO
Il disegnatore che prima e meglio di altri si è cimentato con Zorro (dopo il rifiuto di Hugo Pratt di farlo – notizia ben poco nota, che ho inserito a suo tempo nel libro Irripetibili) è Alex Toth.
