Rohde retired from Imagineering in 2021 after 40 years in the industry. Earlier this month it was announced that he’d be honored as a Disney Legend at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event 2024. In the wake of the D23 announcement, Rohde took to Instagram to thank his fellow Imagineers and park guests. Rhode’s impact can be felt throughout the Disney Parks, having had a hand in projects such as Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Pandora: The World of Avatar, Aulani, and Guardians of the Galaxy — Mission Breakout, to name a few.
