Paul R. Bruno is recognized as one of the most knowledgeable living experts on the earliest history of the origins, design, implementation and worldwide delivery of the iconic Jeep vehicle and has spent twenty-five years researching, writing and studying early Jeep history.

He has spent countless hours and treasure to tell this story to the world, first for the big screen and now three times in book form. After visiting key sites in the story, and years of research, including at the United States National Archives, he combined his knowledge of project management and history into the 2014 book Project Management in History: The First Jeep.

After additional research he completed The Original Jeeps in 2020, updated in 2024 which tells the complete story of early Jeep history through January 1942. The Original Jeeps in Pictures, published in 2022, tells the story of early Jeep history in images.

Paul has more than 35 years’ experience in the fields of project management and information technology. He holds bachelor’s degrees in management and computer software, as well as master’s degrees in business administration and history along with PMI’s PgMP, PMP and CPMAI certifications.
