It had to be! Forty years ago, as teenage Star Trek fans in NYC, we called Gene Roddenberry’s office at Paramount and we literally got him on the phone to do an interview for our fanzine. He had to know we were just young kids, but he treated us with respect and overall coolness.
Gene became a true mentor for us starting in the 1980s when he made continual appearances at our Star Trek Conventions throughout the U.S. We treasured our visits to the Hart Building on the Paramount lot to watch the creation of Star Trek: The Next Generation and see Gene’s vision coming to life.
Today we’ve come full circle with the wonderful news that we are bringing some of our favorite Trek celebrities to San Francisco (where a certain command center was located) on with a full-scale, non-stop three days of trippin’ the light fantastic and honoring Roddenberry’s legacy to us all. We’re at the luxurious Hyatt Regency SFO Hotel, super-close to the airport for convenience and a great venue for our event.
