A bit like Disney Legends/Imagineering [1] and Ub Iwerks. Ub created Disney with Walt and drew all the initial cartoons even creating Mickey Mouse, but took a long time to get recognized because of a falling out when Iwerks went to MGM [2].

Eventually Iwerks returned to Disney making amazing imagineering tech, but wasn't added even in the first batch of Disney Legends in '87.

Ub Iwerks wasn't included in Disney's "Nine Old Men" either. [3]
