Animator, director and writer Vernon Stallings is my 157th choice to be named a Disney Legend. Stallings directed the Silly
Symphonies short Merbabies before continuing writing for the Disney studios on
feature films such as Fantasia, Dumbo, Victory Through Air Power and Bambi. He is the son of famous
baseball manager George Stallings.
In 1946, Stallings worked on the writing for
“Song of the South” and then took over the writing for the Disney comics and
introduced new characters such as Molly Cottontail who would later become Brer
Rabbit’s girlfriend. He worked for Disney Studios from 1935-1946.
