Acknowledgments

I could not have written this book without the support of Becky Knauer and Shannon LeMay-Finn. I sincerely appreciate their partnership and dedication to keeping our work on track and accurate.

I would also like to acknowledge the contributions of several other people who made this book possible: Joyce Nielson for her technical edits of the manuscripts (nothing gets past Joyce), Jeff Shelstad for believing in my vision for this book, and our film production team—Peg Portz, John Santamaria, and Noel Kratzer. It is great to be working with this team in the studio again.

Finally, I would like to thank my wife, Julie, and my children, Isaac and Stella. I am extremely lucky to have such a wonderful and supportive family.
