"I'm
also a collectormostly of ephemera, Disneyana, vintage
Hollywood and a bit of natural science," Baham said,
explaining his hobbies. "I also love to collect samples
of pop culture and printed advertising art as it has existed
through the latter half of the 20th century."

Disney theme parks enthrall me, insomuch as they represent
the culmination of the creative efforts of so many talented
artists and designers and technicians," Baham continued.

specifically by the Disney Company to give opinions and
advice on various aspects of the marketing and merchandising
of the Anaheim park," Baham added.
