Pat DisneyDame2004Pat (Disneydame2004)
Content Coordinator/Dream Team Project Coordinator ( This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it )

Pat found the Walt Disney World Trivia Book and DisneyWorldTrivia.com right around the time she crossed the line from "Disney Fan" to "Certified Disney Nut," with the Theme Parks being her fascination. After a slow start of visiting only once as a child, she's now feeling that once a year is too long between visits and is working on ways to get that mid-year fix. Currently a stay-at-home mom for her two kids, her winding career path has included computer programming, teaching, writing, and a wedding invitation business. As Content Coordinator, Pat oversees the articles sections of DWT.com, acting as liaison between authors and the site, editing articles, and recruiting new columnists. Her work as Dream Team Project Coordinator includes running the annual Dream Team Auction at Fred Block's Magic Meets Disney Fan Gathering at Camp Hill, PA in July.

Eric Hollister
Director of Marketing

eric_hollister.jpgYou’re never too old to enjoy Walt Disney World.  But, what if you’re too tall?  Not a problem either, the fun is still just as big, just watch your head.  That’s Eric’s mantra anyway.  An amusement park enthusiast since he was 9, Eric places Disney World at the top of Mountain.  Although there was a 15 year gap between his Magic Kingdom visits from his childhood to adulthood period, he rediscovered his passion for Disney as an Orlando resident from 2004 to 2006.

Eric holds a Bachelors Degree in Marketing from Florida State University and a Masters Degree in Advertising from The University of Texas at Austin.  Prior to joining The WDW Radio team, Eric began his marketing career as a Marketing Director and Director of Business Development for Simon Property Group.  He focuses his efforts on working closely with partners of The WDW Radio Show and Disney World Trivia brands to develop opportunities designed to put them “In the Starring Role”.  Eric’s background in marketing primarily deals with creating immersive experiences that add both value and a bit of a “WOW!” factor.  He also develops events designed to generate awareness and excitement around the podcast, the website, and The Disney World Trivia Dream Team Project.

Favorite Park: The Magic Kingdom
Favorite Attraction: Expedition Everest (it’s a toss up)
Favorite Resort: The Animal Kingdom Lodge
Favorite Restaurant or Meal: Boma for breakfast
Favorite Character: Donald Duck


Brian Fee
Staff Photographer

I have been a Walt Disney World pass holder for more that 7 years, but I was taken a lot as a kid. I have always enjoyed going and knew that there was more to the parks than appeared. I started to become bored with just going and not knowing the meaning behind what I was seeing. I looked to the internet for more information and found that there are people like me. When I found Lou Mongello's pod-cast and books, it gave me away of learning more. Since then, he and the other wonderful people that run websites and blogs have inspired to start one of my own.

I have lived in Lakeland, Florida all my life. I started photography when I was in middle school and haven't really stopped since. I find it to be an excellent way to relax and express myself creatively. After winning a few awards in high school for my photography, I
decided to go to school for art. Now I work in an award winning creative department for a large grocery chain here in the southeast. I really enjoy photography as a hobby and enjoy teaching other people secrets of photography.

Baloo - JamesDJamesD (dzneynut)
Games Creator ( This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it )

Where to begin? At the beginning! - My earliest recollection of Disney came on those many Sunday nights listening to Uncle Walt on TV in the sixties. The seed was planted I've lived all my life in the Hampton Roads area of coastal Virginia, married my high school sweetheart, Linda almost 31 years ago, went to work at NASA-Langley straight out of high school, obtained a BS in Chemistry, and attended graduate school at the College of William & Mary. Our infatuation with Disney started slowly after taking our kids to WDW for the first time in 1986 & 1989. In 1997, we became Disney Vacation Club members at OKW and now visit about 3 times a year. It's not where we're going on vacation, but when! I've been an active 'lurker' on the internet as either "nasanut" or "jamesd", and we've accumulated many Disney collections, including all of the animated and live-action features. Then came the Disney Mini-Bean Bag craze where we made it a point to obtain every Disney beanie from around the world! In 1999, Disney pins became our obsession, and we now have over 5000 pins! We've also accumulated many other pieces of Disney collectibles - probably enough to start our own 'Art of Disney' store! We've tried to concentrate on Linda's favorite characters, Sorcerer Mickey and all villains. Somewhere along the line I became infatuated with Disney trivia, reading and absorbing anything I could find, especially on Walt Disney World. I look at it as a way of keeping Uncle Walt's legacy alive.

Favorite Park: Disney-MGM Studios (really, it's Disneyland)
Favorite Attraction: Tower of Terror (Disney at its best!)
Favorite Resort: Wilderness Lodge (the best themed resort)
Favorite Restaurant or Meal: Spoodles (just for the Sangria!)
Favorite Character: Baloo (such a lovable character from Walt's last film.)


TiggerguyBrian (Tiggerguy)
Lead Forum Moderator / "Keeper of the Lists"

It wasn't until he was 33 that Brian made his first trek down to Disney World in March of 1990. He liked it so much that he has been back every year since. He has also made four trips out to Disneyland. He became very interested in Disney Trivia in 1995 when he first got connected to Compuserve, one of the very first providers of internet service. He has been playing Disney Trivia there every Tuesday night since. Brian discovered DisneyWorldTrivia.com by reading a message that Lou had posted on the rec.arts.disney.park (RADP) news group in early 2004. He visited the site a few times before deciding to join and enjoyed it so much that he volunteered to help Lou moderate it. Every chance he gets, he tells people to come to the site for fun and get information. Brian has the distinction of being the very first customer to Lou's logo store when he introduced it. As "Keeper of the Lists" Brian keeps tracks of active members birthdays, anniversaries and weekly membership growth. His other duties include giving history of what has happened at Disney and other interesting tidbits.

Favorite Resort: Wilderness Lodge
Favorite Park: Animal Kingdom
Favorite Attraction: MuppetVision 3D
Favorite Meal: Beef Filet Mignon at Jiko
Favorite Characters: Sorcerer Mickey/Tigger (of course!)
