An Interview with Eric L. Watts, Founder of TrekTrax Atlanta (Part 2)

[30 Jun 2010 | by | One Comment]

This is part 2 of an interview with Eric L. Watts, who previously ran Star Trek programming for Dragon*con. As many are probably aware by now, Watts was not asked to return to Dragon*con for 2010. It would have been his 18th year at the helm (excuse the pun). Instead, Star Trek: Voyager actor Garrett Wang is leading the new “Trek Track” programming for Dragon*con.
