TA Podcast E29: Dr. Barry R. Hill

The Themed Attraction Podcast

Our guest needs no introduction…because he’s always at the end of the show! Dr. Barry R. Hill, our very own show producer and designer, is the author of Imagineering an American Dreamscape: Genesis, Evolution, and Redemption of the Regional Theme Park. This book tells the long-overdue story of the regionals and the strong-willed individuals behind them—where they came from, how they got started, and how they’ve changed over the decades. Featuring a special chapter by our co-host Mel McGowan, it’s a fascinating read that took us down memory lane as we discuss the non-Disney parks we all grew up with.
