Brian McNeece was raised in El Centro in southeastern California along the Mexican border. As a young boy, he didn’t realize that he lived in a desert, so thorough was the landscape around him transformed by water brought from the Colorado River. After running a recycling center and a solar water heating business, he taught English at Imperial Valley College. Based on his studies of water, he has produced two documentaries: “The Early History of Water in the Imperial Valley” and “Phil Swing and the Path to Hoover Dam.” He is a co-chair of the International Boundary and Water Commission Citizen’s Forum in San Diego and volunteers as a Trail Guide at Mission Trails Regional Park. Brian lives in La Mesa, California, with his wife Angela. They have three sons
