Twenty-five years ago, Disney’s Beauty and the Beast broke ground as the first animated feature film to receive an Academy Award® nomination for best picture, and now this tale as old as time joins the Walt Disney Signature Collection on Blu-ray™ and DVD on September 20. And we got to talk to Paige O’Hara, the voice of Belle.
You may have seen Paige O’Hara on Broadway, or at an appearance with a symphony at Carnegie Hall or the Hollywood Bowl, or in the hit Off Broadway show “Menopause the Musical” in Las Vegas. You may have heard her voice on a Grammy Award winning cast album. Perhaps you know her from Disney Fine Art and have seen or purchased her artwork, which is sold in galleries across the country. Well, she spoke to us about ALL these things.

It was such a pleasure to sit down and talk to her about her career. We got to ask her all sorts of questions about her work and in return, she told us some fun stories.
From Disney Princess to Disney fine artist, Paige O’Hara has had a full and exciting career that she continues to enjoy. Now listen in on the conversation. — A.O.
