Aaron Wallace is a bestselling author, entertainment writer, and attorney with a particular interest in pop culture, 1980s/1990s nostalgia, and all things Disney.

His critical interest in entertainment began at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in both Communication Studies (with a concentration in Media Studies) and English. While there, he taught a recitation course in analyzing children's literature, with an emphasis on Disney's adaptations in theme parks and film.

Wallace later pursued an interest in law, earning a Juris Doctorate from Wake Forest University.
