About
ExpoMuseum

 

ExpoMuseum was first created as a web site in 1998. Since then, the site has gone through several incarnations and now receives, on average, about 18,000 unique visitors each month. There is also an ExpoMuseum discussion group on Yahoo! Groups with nearly 600 members. A blog was added in 2007 and this year, we add a podcast.

The dream is for ExpoMuseum to someday be a physical museum dedicated to the history of all world expositions in much the same spirit as the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland.

The site was created and is maintained by Urso Chappell, who has had a passion for world's fairs ever since his first world's fair at the age of 15 when he visited the 1982 World's Fair. Since then, he has visited the 1984 Louisiana Purchase Exposition, Expo '86, Expo '98, Expo 2000, and Expo 2005. Urso's background, experience, and skills are further described at UrsoChappell.com.
