In the few years since his boyhood, Jeff has expanded his interests to include television, theatre, theme parks and voiceover while still cultivating his love for the art of filmmaking. Jeff is currently co-host of the podcast “Dizney Coast to Coast” and has created and hosted the television pilot “That’s Entertainment”. He can be

Today we have the author of "Hidden Mickey's, A field Guide to Walt Disney World's Best Kept Secret" Steve Barrett. Steve's Bio:  Author Steven M. Barrett paid his first visit to Disney World in the late 1980s, after attending a conference in Orlando. He immediately fell under its spell, visiting it twice yearly with family and friends for the next several years, offering touring advice to the less initiated, and reading almost everything written about the WDW theme parks. When a job in his field opened up not far from WDW in 1998, Barrett relocated to the Orlando area from Houston, Texas. He began visiting the WDW parks every chance he got to enjoy the attractions, sample the restaurants, escort visiting friends and relatives, and find Hidden Mickeys! His interest in Hidden Mickeys led him to take pen in hand. The result is this book of Hidden Mickey scavenger hunts arranged to help you spend the least
