Steve Shenk was the director of the J. Michael Stevens Group during the late 1990s, when the company sold long-term storable food and emergency supplies. Art Bell introduced him as a specialist in food storage for a 1998 discussion of household preparedness and uncertainty surrounding the Y2K transition.
