He had unusual voice and he wanted to do work in Disney's cartoon films for children. When Walt Disney heard Nash's voice, he said" Stop! That's our duck!" The duck was the now-famous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the film---The Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat and wore his sailor jacket and hat. Later that year he became a star after an eight-minute Mickey Mouse film. The cinema audiences liked him because he was lazy and greedy, and because he lost his temper very quickly.
