Hi Daniel, You should be proud of your mother. She’s So talented. It was such a great time to be a child. btw My son is named Daniel. I’m Very proud of him. Hugs!
This was MMC, rather than AGT. Walt NEVER wanted the best of the best. He wanted ordinary looking people who made the public feel like they could be a Mouseketeer. Of course, even so, only the most mature of the Mouseketeers managed to survive on the MMC. Plus, most of the public was no where near as talented as the Mouseketeers.
