Dave Marx may be considered a Renaissance Man, a jack-of-all-trades, or a dilettante, depending on how you look at things. He took a 20-year hiatus between his early journalism training and the commencement of his full-time writing career. Beyond coauthoring the new book “Your Official America Online Tour Guide & Membership Kit" with Jennifer (AOL Press, 2001), he's been a radio writer/producer; recording engineer; motion picture music editor; broadcast engineering supervisor; tax preparer; cab driver, whitewater safety and rescue instructor; developer and instructor of online publishing courses; and newsletter editor and promotions chief for an online forum. He has also contributed to numerous books about America Online and the Internet.

Allison Cerel Marx (“Allie”) is a veteran visitor to Walt Disney World (and Dave’s 16-year-old daughter). She has a maniacal grin, especially when spinning one of Mad Hatter’s teacups at top speed. She’s camped at Fort Wilderness, hung out in the Treehouses at the Disney Institute, celebrated New Year’s Eve 1999/2000 in the Magic Kingdom, and photographed animals at the Animal Kingdom Lodge Resort. She shares her “A-OK!” ratings and “Allie’s KidTips,” "TweenTips," and "TeenTips" notes for attractions in the Touring the ‘World’ chapter. The 2002-2010 editions of PassPorter's Walt Disney World include Allie's contributions.
