Context:

Referred to multiple times as 'the great biography by Neil Gabler' and 'Gabler's biography' - cited for insights on Disney losing interest in animated films in the 1940s-50s, his craving for total control, the opening day TV audience estimate of 70 million, and the design symbolism of Main Street USA.
