email.. you said you are a producer. i looked you up on imdb to see
what things you had worked on.. i didnt find you listed anywhere.
what kinds of things do you produce? must not be in film?

In the mid-90s I had a private tour of Skywalker Ranch. It was/is an
amazing place.
A friend of a friend was the HR manager, and we spent about 2 hours
touring.
We were in George's personal conf room, which was a high-tech state
of the
art room, for the time.
Outside the room was a big case with the coolest of the cool --
Indy's whip,
hat and jacket, Vader's and Luke's light sabers, etc.
One very nice aspect of the ranch is that, even though there are a
lot ob
buildings, you can't see another building if you are at one.
George's idea.
We went through Skywalker Sound and they were scoring a new Dino
movie,
which was Jurassic Park 2.
Since I'm a producer, I asked her about a job.
She said I could start almost right away. But, the cost of living
in N. CA
is outta site, and the pay is very bad, because everyone wants to work
there. So, they don't really need to pay much. Many people will
start
there, stay for a while to get it on their resume, then move on.
It WAS
tempting, but I opted not to do it.
We ended up in the employee store. I bought multiple posters of
the Star
Wars Trilogy, an animated Darth Vader bank ($12!) a few tee- shirts
and
hats. And, I took lots of pix.
But, it was a very memorable day!

I was reading a movie web site that mentioned a tour of LUCAS's
Skywalker
Ranch. The copy mentions a bunch of international one sheets. I
guess
George collects international paper.
Here is the article.

We left the theater at this point and looked around ILM a bit. Lucas
apparently collects foreign posters and there large framed Italian
posters
up everywhere. Everything from early Kurosawa movies to obscure
Italian
noirs to the Sergio Leone Man With No Name Trilogy. I myself
collect foreign
posters and have many Italian posters, so I was, of course, drawn
to them.
Best,
