I met Aaron through the International Wizard
of Oz Club. We are both currently working on an audio adaptation of
Baum's novels. It was a lot of fun doing this interview.

Aaron's website
has a good collection of Oz videos at reasonable prices. Zach is one of the
top youngest Oz collectors here in the US. That's because of his
unbelievable collection that he has displayed at his home!
