Terri Hardin – Imagineer, Puppeteer and Star Wars super-fan – joins us for an incredible discussion on her life and career. “Mark Hamill and I used to fight over posters before he was Luke Skywalker. He wanted to collect what I wanted to collect!” And this is only Part 1 of the conversation! Terri was noted in George Lucas’ biography Skywalking, worked with George Lucas and befriended Michael Jackson on Captain EO. Her career also includes sculpting and prepping the original Star Tours and Disneyland Paris (formerly EuroDisney) as it was being built. Her puppeteering can be seen in Ghostbusters and McDonald’s commercials. This lady is amazing. Connect with her here. Also on this episode:
