ABSTRACT

Ginni Mack was a longtime Ink & Paint artist whose career began in 1945 working on the postwar anthology films of Disney Studios. During her early tenure at Disney, Ginni was often called to demonstrate and model for various photo-ops featuring the Walt Disney Ink & Paint process. A petite blonde who often wore her golden strands in a knot-top bun with side-swept bangs, Ginni was asked to model for a tiny pixie. Her various rounds of modeling later resulted in the inspiration for everyone's favorite fairy—Tinker Bell!
