Cold Hard Fact Man
DOSSIER: We are continually impressed by the writing and podcasting of Todd James Pierce. His research is exhaustive. Thoroughness would be his middle name if he wasn’t already showing three cards. But it’s not digging for the sake of digging. Specifically, in his Disney Historical Institute podcasts, and his recent book, Three Years In Wonderland, his fact mastery cuts to the heart of, and the true motivation for the events he depicts. He leaves out uncorroborated “legend” in an area of study that is rife with fable, fantasy, and mythology. While chronicling those who were creating fable, fantasy, and mythology. No small task.
Here’s his personal bio…
Todd James Pierce lives in a town called Orcutt, California, which is in the northern portion of Santa Barbara County. He is the author or co-author of eight books, including Newsworld, which won the Drue Heinz Literature Prize. His work has been published in over 80 magazines and literary journals, including The Georgia Review, The Gettysburg Review, Harvard Review, Indiana Review, The Iowa Review, The Missouri Review, North American Review, VQR, and Willow Springs. His most recent book is Three Years in Wonderland, which tells the story of Walt Disney and the birth of the American theme park industry. Here is his Amazon page.
