Steven Barrett

Author Steven M. Barrett paid his first visit to Disney World in the late 1980s, after attending a medical 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 of emergency medicine opened up not far from WDW in 1998, Barrett, a Texas native, Air Force veteran, and former Oklahoma City medical professor, 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, and escort visiting friends and relatives. Eventually, feedback from family and friends made him realize he had better advice on touring the parks than they could get anywhere else. So he wrote the guidebook, The Hassle-Free Walt Disney World Vacation, which includes customized touring plans for adults and teens, families with younger children, and seniors, along with insider tips gleaned from his almost weekly visits to Disney World. He followed it up with Hidden Mickeys: A Field Guide to Walt Disney World’s Best Kept Secrets, a guide in scavenger-hunt format to nearly 500 hidden Mickeys. Barrett continues to visit WDW almost every week, finding the parks and other attractions every bit as magical as they first appeared to him on his first visit over 17 years ago.
