Date: May 18th, 2024
Episode: 1
Discussion: Meet Echo. She will introduce herself and talk about what the listeners can expect to hear and experience on this show! 


About Echo: Echo has over thirty years of experience as a commercial illustrator and educator. She specializes in advertisements, packaging, posters, and book covers, for the most discerning clients. She also has a significant fine art career, bringing her personal sense of storytelling to the public portraying characters from her own imagination.
Echo works both traditionally and digitally and often combines the two, pushing both raster and vector programs to the limits of their design specifications. She graduated summa cum laude from Pratt Institute in 1995 with the President's Award for Academic Excellence. A traditional background in art focuses on skills such as drawing and painting as well as perspective and color theory. This allows the artist to translate their concept into whatever media best suits the job — resulting in a very versatile artist, who is not limited by any one style or medium.
Echo illustrates, designs, art directs, and instructs. She is famous for her passion for detail. Clients praise her professionalism. Collectors world-wide cherish her unique storytelling style. Her reputation as an insightful and considerate contributor to the creative process has earned her countless honors and accolades. She has worked with many prestigious clients over the years, including Celestial Seasonings, Miller-Coors, Jose Cuervo, almost every major publisher, and world-famous resorts. She had the privilege of completing a mural for the Sheikh of Dubai's grand celebration at Godolphin racecourse and made it all the way to Carnegie Hall, signing posters with Arlo Guthrie.
Echo has won dozens of awards for illustration. And since 2019 has been the coordinating judge for Illustrators of the Future, a prestigious global competition for illustrators early in their career. The contest is a platform for established artists to support new professionals in an effort to pay it forward to the next generation. Other judges – past and present – include Frank Frazetta, Wil Eisner, Larry Elmore, Bob Eggleton, and Frank Kelly Freas. She art directs the annual best seller Writers of the Future and, with her husband Lazarus, instructs contest winners in a weekly seminar in Hollywood, CA every year.

 Battlefield Earth is a science fiction saga of adventure, daring and courage, when man is an endangered species and the future survival of what's left of the human race is at stake.

 In the year 3000 AD, man has been savagely ruled for a thousand years by a space-plundering alien race of nine-foot high, gas-breathing conquerors from the planet Psychlo.

 One of the Psychlos, the villainous Terl, enslaves a man-creature and forces him to mine Earth gold. Terl’s plan: to teleport the gold to Psychlo, where he can then return wealthy and powerful.

 From this dystopian landscape, a slave emerges —Jonnie Goodboy Tyler. As a member of the dwindling community of only 35,000 human survivors,  Jonnie has plans to free mankind from alien tyranny—and cause the ultimate destruction of the Psychlo empire.

 But is Jonnie’s fight to save humanity from these gigantic and technologically superior monsters a losing battle? Or will humans regain the Earth once more?
