BRUCE BEVERIDGE (US) has been a historian for many years, centring on early civilisations, the Crusades, and famous ships. He is also the senior historical archivist for his local community library and spends his time away from Titanic working on local history projects. Bruce is one of the foremost visual and technical historians of the Olympic class ships and has advised on Titanic's specifications for exhibitions, publishing companies, professional modelling firms, the Danbury Mint, museums, television production companies, the auction firm of Henry Aldridge & Son and other organisations. Bruce's highly sought-after General Arrangement plan of the ship, released in 2003, is the most highly detailed and accurate plan released to date and has subsequently been used by dive teams investigating the wreck.

Between having it read to him and then seeing the J. Arthur Rank movie of the same name, he admits he became thoroughly and hopelessly hooked. Scott's primary interest in Titanic centres on the engineering aspects of the ship - her design, construction and propulsion machinery. He is a trustee of the Titanic Research and Modeling Association, and also co-authored Titanic in Photographs. His interests outside Titanic include pipe organs and organ building and restoring antique cars.STEVE HALL lives in the small coastal town of Angels Beach in New South Wales, Australia.
