Stanford Filbrick "Ford" Pines, Ph.D., also known as The Author, is the writer of journals 1, 2, and 3, as well as the long-lost older twin brother of Stan Pines and a main character in the last season of the Disney series Gravity Falls.
Ford is a paranormal investigator who came to Gravity Falls, Oregon, to study the huge concentration of supernatural activity in and around the town.
