Biography:
Author, interviewer, host, speaker, podcaster/streamer, archivist, producer, voiceover, actor...and fan: "Dr. Trek" is a much shorter way to say that Larry Nemecek has a background in news and theatre, but it is "Trekland" where he's worked ever since his bestselling "Next Generation" Companion became a classic. An historian/ pundit for Trek DVDs, host of Roddenberry's THE TREK FILES podcast and a convention guest worldwide, Larry has now launched the pioneering PORTAL 47 deep-dive experience for Trekfolk, taking them where no savvy fan has gone before.

Thousands of new fans worldwide now know "Dr. Trek" from across the 10-part Center Seat Trek docuseries on History Channel-even as he's written his "Fistful of Data" column in the official Star Trek Magazine since 1998. His hit Star Trek: Stellar Cartography maps/book set from Amazon was updated in 2018.

At "Trekland" HQ, Larry shares even more behind-the-scenes experiences and "canon-keeping" with his Trekland Treks customized day tours of LA-area Trek filming locations, his Trekland Tuesdays LIVE stream and now "Second Opinion" on YouTube, and his "Trekland On Speaker" remastered interview CDs that bridge Star Trek old and new-as does his documentary project, the 1982 meltdown-turned-miracle The Con of Wrath now wrapping up.

It's a career that led the non-profit Future Society of Central Oklahoma in 2022 to present the Okie ex-pat with the Nucleon award as an inductee of the Oklahoma Speculative Fiction Hall of Fame.

He also worked on the storied "Star Trek: The Experience" in Las Vegas and Star Trek world tours, was managing editor of the official Communicator magazine 1998-2005-plus the entire original worldwide run of the Star Trek Fact Files from the UK to Japan.

Larry is also a two-time co-winner of state Associated Press news awards from his news days, serves as a docent and Foundation boardmember at the Will Rogers State Historic Park in Santa Monicaï¿1/2 and still has his first Star Trek T-shirt.
