Charita Carter
Executive Creative Producer
Walt Disney Imagineering
Charita Carter is an Executive Creative Producer at Walt Disney Imagineering and is based in LA.
In March 2020, Carter celebrated the opening of a landmark project at Walt Disney World (WDW) to which she was integral as an Imagineer. Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway is the world’s first ride-through Disney theme park attraction featuring the entertainment giant’s flagship character.“Charita prides herself on being a ‘geek enabler’,” says one WDI colleague.
A Disney veteran with almost a quarter of a century’s service, Carter was seven when she enjoyed her first Disney theme park experience on a family trip to ‘The Happiest Place on Earth’. She started her career in accounting before becoming a financial analyst at Imagineering. “That opened up the door for me to work very closely with our creatives and our producers,” she told Black Girl Nerds.
