Linfield and Fothergill are helming Disneynature's next project, Big Cats, which follows three feline mothers - a lioness, a leopard and a cheetah - on the African plains. After that, the company plans to release Naked Beauty, which is about flowers and pollination...
...spend a lot of time talking about all of the extraordinary pieces that have been returned, but I always want to come back to pieces that haven't been returned. My favorite piece is, in my view, the most historically significant piece that is still missing.

Though it's generally considered a period in which women were repressed, Beem--whose book The Lioness Roared focuses on female rule in English history--feels the Tudor era is of particular interest to women in positions of influence. In terms of being a female in a boys' club, Elizabeth was way ahead of her time. "She's the model of female rule in a male-dominated...
