Über den Autor
TOM MEHRMANN began his career in the theme park industry in 1977 cleaning the grounds at Knotts Berry Farm, an attraction located seven miles from Disneyland. A quarter century later, he built on the lessons learned there - as well as at other parks in the US and Europe - to ensure that Ocean Park Hong Kong did not whither in the shadow of another Disney resort. As the chief executive of Ocean Park Hong Kong from 2004 - 2016, Tom oversaw the attraction's transformation into a leading world-class family-travel destination that welcomes more than seven million visitors annually. A graduate of California State University Fullerton, Tom is currently the president and general manager of Universal Studios Beijing and is tasked with launching Universal Studios' first resort in China.
