Wonders of America was founded by Edward Van Der Meer. Having
spent his childhood in The Hague, the Netherlands capital, Mr.
Van Der Meer grew up in close proximity to the world famous park
of Madurodam and understood the importance that a park about
a country has to its citizens. After immigrating to the U.S.
in 1985, Edward decided that this country deserves to have a
world-class park that celebrates America; thus, the concept was
born.
Mr. Van Der Meer spent fifteen years in Southern California
as a commercial advisor for institutional real estate investment.
Prior to that, he designed, constructed, and operated three restaurants
in Spain, and was a partner in a design firm in London.
