Armed with a degree in history from Brown University and a master’s degree in linguistics from the University of London, Doug Schneider has lived on 3 different continents and in 10 different states. He has taken a shine to St. Louis, where he enjoys both showing off St. Louis to visitors and revealing St. Louis to the people who have lived here all their lives. He has described the history and architecture of downtown, neighborhoods, and suburbs—and shown people the visual delights of fountains, murals, museums, libraries, and historic houses in the area. Doug helps people get their kicks on Route 66, and helps them re-live the 1904 World’s Fair. Doug likes to travel and has given talks on places all around the world. He digs deep into history in Missouri and the United States from the Revolutionary War to modern times.
