About the Author:

About the Authors Bill Goodwin began his career as an award–winning newspaper reporter before becoming legal counsel and speechwriter for two U.S. senators. He is also the author of Frommer's South Pacific and Frommer's Virginia. Victoria Caldwell is a freelance journalist and a graduate of the Columbia University School of Journalism. When she isn't teaching classes in New York, the former Miami resident often heads back home to soak up the nightlife in South Beach. She is the author of Frommer's South Florida. Jim and Cynthia Tunstall have been waiting impatiently in Walt Disney World lines since the Magic Kingdom's opening bell in 1971. In the 3 decades since, they've sampled just about every element of a great Orlando vacation. Those experiences are the credentials that allow these Florida insiders to separate the good from the bad and the ugly. Based close to the Disney epicenter, they have written three other Orlando–related books, including Walt Disney World For Dummies.
