Established in 1987, the Disney Legends program recognizes men and women who have made an extraordinary and integral contribution to The Walt Disney Company. Year 1987 ( MCMLXXXVII) was a Common year starting on Thursday (link displays 1987 Gregorian calendar) The honor is awarded annually during a special ceremony.

Recipients are chosen by a selection committee appointed and chaired by Disney Legend Roy E. Disney, Walt Disney's nephew and Director Emeritus of The Walt Disney Company. Roy Edward Disney KCSG (born January 10, 1930) was a longtime senior executive for The Walt Disney Company, which his father Roy Oliver Walter Elias Disney (December 5 1901 – December 15 1966 was a multiple Academy Award -winning American Film producer, director, Screenwriter The committee consists of long-time Disney executives, historians and other authorities.

Burbank is a city in Los Angeles County California, United States. There are three buildings in the United States which carry the Team Disney title Each honoree is represented by a bronze plaque; the plaque features the recipient's handprints and signature if they were living when named a Disney Legend.

Artist Andrea Favilli created the Disney Legends award, which is handcrafted from bronze each year. The award depicts the arm of Mickey Mouse holding a star-tipped wand. Mickey Mouse is a comic animal Cartoon character who has become an icon for The Walt Disney Company.

Disney describes the award as follows:

“

The Disney Legends award has three distinct elements that characterize the contributions made by each talented recipient. The Spiral . . . stands for imagination, the power of an idea. The Hand . . . holds the gifts of skill, discipline and craftsmanship. The Wand and the Star . . . represent magic: the spark that is ignited when imagination and skill combine to create a new dream [1].

”

When Disney opened up their hall of fame, all the then major Hollywood studios considered opening up their own halls of fame, but (as of 2008) Disney remains the only major Hollywood studio to have one. A hall of fame (sometimes HOF) is a type of Museum established for any a field of endeavor to honor individuals of noteworthy achievement in that field 2008 ( MMVIII) is the current year in accordance with the Gregorian calendar, a Leap year that started on Tuesday of the Common
