Mickey and the Teamsters: A Conversation with Mike Schneider @ Tombolo Books

November 7, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

In Mickey and the Teamsters, Mike Schneider pulls the veil back on the most “magical place on Earth.” Schneider offers a behind-the-scenes look at some of the hidden struggles that surround Disney World, which employs the largest single-site workforce in the United States.

Tombolo Books welcomes Schneider to the bookstore for a conversation about the little-known story of Teamsters Local 385, the union that representing Disney’s performers. Schneider will be in conversation with local author Tamara Lush.

Mike Schneider is a journalist for the Associated Press. He has lived in Orlando, Florida, since 1997, reporting on Walt Disney World and the tourism industry.

Tamara Lush is a Rita Award finalist, an Amtrak writing fellow, and a George C. Polk Award–winning journalist. She’s a former reporter who writes contemporary romance set in tropical locations, and she writes mysteries under the name Tara Lush. A fan of vintage pulp-fiction book covers, Sinatra-era jazz, and 1980s fashion, she lives with her husband and two dogs on the Gulf Coast.
