Our guest today is the one and only Action Girl (aka Andie Grace). She has come a long way from growing up in St Louis, then moving to SF where she got involved with the Cacophony Society before going out to Black Rock City in 1997.
Andie quickly got involved and volunteered with Media Mecca when it was first forming. Andie has worn many hats as a Burning Man Project staffer, besides working with Media Mecca she she took over the Jack Rabbit Speaks (the BM newsletter for those who don't know) from Maid Marion. Andie was also one of the original leaders of the Regional Network when it was first forming around the turn of the millennium.
Over the years Andie has left the Project to pursue her own career and then come back again. Currently she is a Burning Man staffer working with the Philosophical Center collecting oral histories.
This is an episode that is not to be missed. Learn all about how Burning Man has shaped Andie's life in Episode 7 of Shadow of the Man.
