What you probably do not know is that kiss was the work of a San Francisco native, the very first project that he worked on for disney. David ohno for our sister station has the special story of the man behind that magical moment. Kiss me. Kissing in hollywood lifeline, its that magical moment that changes everything. Theres one kiss so unique thats captured our imagination and inspired many around the world. That accidental spaghetti kiss between two beloved dogs in 1955. Lady and the tramp. But who created this brilliant . Along with the double feature you had a cartoon. Immediate 84yearold willie eto. He remembers being fiveyearold, going to a Movie Theater in San Francisco and his life changed. The most memorable thing was seeing snow white and the seven drafrs f dwarves for the first time. Seeing them march across the screen singing. I thought to myself, thats it. Thats what i want to be. Not one of the seven dwarves. But an animated cartoonist. Before willie could learn anything about being an artist, he had to learn tough lessons about the world. Like december 7th, 1941. Practically every Street Corner had news boys shouting out extra, extra, war. I never heard that word, war, before. At 8 years old willie was locked up in a concentration camp with thousands of other japanese americans. Imprisoned simply because of his ancestry. Some of the early arrivals had to stay in the horse stables and the stables were just packed, dirt and manure. The stench was oh, something else. While locked up, willie honed his skills as an artist. After the war, he continued to draw. Even showing me some of his high school creations. It was these pieces that landed him an interview with walt disney studios. The very first encouner when i walked into the animation building, stepped into the elevator, this is walt disney himself. Im behind walt studying the back of his head, thinking to myself, oh, my god, literally, oh, my god. By that afternoon, willie fulfilled a dream. And the production manager says, yeah, youre hired. So you know, were going to put you in this unit. The first scene they put me on was an iconic spaghetti kissing scene. I had no idea that the scene i worked on initially would turn out to be so iconic. Throughout willies career hes drawn some of the most famous cartoons. Looking around his home, its clear what his closest to his heart. The place where it all began. Not just because it was his first job, but because disney gave a young minority who endured his share of prejudice, an opportunities. I always feel that, wow, that particular scene did make an impact. It makes me feel good. Willie i toe, a civil rights pioneer. He wont tell you that. What he will say is despite the hurdles and hardships, hes lived a magical life. A kid that never had to grow up. Thats something we celebrate whenever we see a plate of spaghetti and think of a kiss. David ohno, abc 7 news. Magic, right . This salute for willie comes on known of a day of remembrance. It was on this day, 76 years old that president roosevelt signed order 9066 with the stroke of a pen. 120,000 innocent japanese americans labeled aliens today also mark the 40th anniversary of the first day of remembrance back in 1978. Time now for ask finney. He answered questions sent to him via facebook, twitter and email. Is there such a thing as a good oldfashioned savings account anymore. Like a brick and mortar bank . I prefer not to bet on the stock market. Okay. There are plenty of brick and mortar banks. They all offer savings accounts. They dont pay much in interest. The high rates are under 2 . Those are actually very hard to come by. Well talk about that at 5 00. Generally the best banks are online banks. A good place to look for Interest Rates is bank rate. Com. Not the easy day. Heres an interesting one. Robert asks, i accidentally closed my master card. But i only knew after i closed it that i had almost 200 in rewards. Can i still get a check in that amount given to me .
