and the University of Prince Edward Island, Canada. Dateline NBC described Doug as "an eccentric entrepreneur who just might have what we've all been looking for...the happy secret to success." Ellen Guidera, Walt Disney Company Vice President said of Doug, "When Doug meets Disney, creativity ne'er wanes; our team explodes when he 'Jump Starts Our Brains!'" Doug and his high school sweetheart, Debbie, have three grown children. They split their time between Cincinnati, Ohio, and Springbrook, Prince Edward Island, Canada, enjoying bagpipe music, Scotch whisky, Malpeque oysters, kayaking, and cross-country skiing. In 1999, Doug turned an expedition to the North Pole into a fundraising effort for Great Aspirations!, a nonprofit organization he founded to help parents inspire their children. The story of that adventure became this book, North Pole Tenderfoot.
