Bob Penfield started working at Disneyland before the park opened in July 1955 and remained there for 42 years, eventually retiring in 1997 as Disneyland’s final original cast member. The Last Original Disneylander tells the park’s story from the perspective of someone who didn’t merely study Disneyland history – he worked through much of it.
Penfield recalls Opening Day, his early work operating attractions, encounters with Walt Disney, and his later career in areas including Facilities and Construction Services. For Disneyland-history readers, the value here is the firsthand perspective: it’s a memoir from someone who watched the park develop from its chaotic first days into the Disneyland known generations later.
