Documenting Doc
with Ron Hill
Thursday, March 23rd, 7-8:30pm Eastern
Ron Hill has been a book lover his whole life. He read Twenty-Thousand Leagues Under the Sea in third grade and The War of the Worlds in fifth grade. But, it was his first Doc Savage book in 1975, at age 14, that sparked his imagination to pursue a career as a commercial artist and writer. In 2022, Ron started on a new adventure: documenting the “creators, collectors and characters” who keep the legacy of Doc Savage alive. Ron’s passion for a 1930s-era pulp hero has led him to dive into the wild world of pulp fandom. Ron will be sharing clips of his developing film, We Are Doc Savage: A Documentary on Fandom, as well as books from his 2,000-book collection of Doc Savage, science fiction and fantasy books; a library which dates back to his grandfather’s early edition hardcover of Tarzan of the Apes from 1911.
