From the Los Angeles Times, " Fairy Tale Ending to a Real Disney Story" Studio restores Walt's first animated work - long lost, but rediscovered by chance. By Charles Solomon. Used without Permission:::::::: Six years before Mickey Mouse made his debut in " Steamboat Willie," there was " Little Red Riding Hood" -- Walt Disney's first animated work, a seven minute silent cartoon that the 21-year-old completed while struggling as a commercial artist in Kansas City. It was 1922 and the beginning of Disney's dream to make films that would tell stories and compete in the growing animation industry. Buth this and other early animated fairy tale ventures failed -- a dubious start to the kingdom he would come to build. Though it is documented in various Disney biographies and histories, " Little Red Riding Hood" has long been considered a lost treasure.
