Imagine That: Ep. 39 - The Rockwork Architect: The Life and Legacy of Fred Joerger

Send us a text

Get ready to ROCK with Sam, Kevin, and Amanda as we honor the legacy of Fred Joerger—the rockwork artist and model builder who helped shape the very foundation of Disneyland. From miniature models of Sleeping Beauty Castle to the towering peaks of the Matterhorn and Big Thunder Mountain, Fred’s work turned blueprints and concept art into believable masterpieces. We explore his career before, during, and after his time as an Imagineer, and how his fingerprints continue to tell stories at the parks today. Then, in our Imagineering Armchair segment, we dream up new ways to bring naturalistic detail and miniature magic back into the parks—just as Fred would have done. We invite you to become Armchair Imagineers with us! Please share your thoughts and join the conversation about this episode and more on our Discord!
