Hey everybody and welcome back to another entry into the Force Cast interview series.

Joining me this time is Craig Miller. If you don't know who

Craig Miller is, he was the director of fan relations, the very first ever

director of fan relations. For Lucasfilm. You might know Steve Sansweet as

holding that position. Pete Wilmer currently holds that position but he was the

director of fan relations from Lucasfilm from 1977 to 1980.

What did he do during that time?

He basically created the official Star Wars fan club.

He edited and wrote almost every issue of Banta Tracks

for the first two years.

And much, much more.

We get into a lot of these stories. This is a great chat with Craig Miller. He has a new book out.

Well, it's not new anymore, but he has a book out if you want to check it out. It's Star Wars Memories My Time in the Death Star trenches, which is available on Amazon,

and all digital book retailers, Barnes and Noble online, Walmart online, anywhere books are sold online.

You can get a copy of Star

Wills Memories My Time in the Death Star trenches. It is a great book. It has a lot
