Hilberman studied art in schools in both Detroit and Cleveland. The great depression began when he was 18, and with its huge economic dislocation promoted political activism and consequential legislation: the Social Security Act and the National Labor Relations Act In 1932 he traveled with friends to Russia, where their parents had been born. He stayed for six months studying stagecraft and art, while working in a theater. Unable to speak Russian and finding Russians too dogmatic, he returned to Cleveland. There he resumed his education at Case Western Reserve University, earning a B.S. in Art Education in 1934 and continuing his involvement with theater at the Cleveland Play House. After David secured a job teaching art in high school, he and Libbie Kirshner married on March 1, 1936. On their honeymoon in New York, David became aware of a talent search for artists being held by Walt Disney Productions. He entered, submitted a portfolio and became one of 29 artists hired out of several thousand applicants.
