clue: Steve Martin is arguably the celebrity who most famously used to work at Disneyland, but he acquired his love of the banjo the same way as this man, who was then his co-worker: The teenagers would take their breaks at the magic shop to run over to Frontierland to listen to the live bluegrass music. As a professional banjoist, he went on to a nearly forty-year membership in a famous Dirt Band, who once played backup on Martin's "King Tut" while billed as the Toot Uncommons.

clue: This hit-making songwriter is best known for his collaboration with the Carpenters, particularly lifelong friend Richard Carpenter, with whom he played live music in the Coke Corner (now Refreshment Corner) restaurant on Main Street, USA while they were just starting out. The duo was fired after four months for playing contemporary hits instead of old-timey music, but his career turned out just fine, seeing as he went on to write hits for Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, Madonna, George Strait, and others. He also wrote many theme songs for TV shows, including Growing Pains starring Joanna Kerns, who herself once worked at Disneyland, playing Pinocchio's Blue Fairy in the Main Street Electrical Parade.

clue: Disneyland's addition of an audio-animatronic of Walt Disney for its 70th anniversary is turning out to be controversial, but Walt wouldn't be the first company employee recreated in audio-animatronic form: This man was reaching the end of his first career as a film actor when he was hired to host the live television broadcast of Disneyland's opening day from spots all over the park, before he embarked on a second career that eventually reached such heights that his likeness was added to the Magic Kingdom's Hall of Presidents.
