Mary McNamara
Mary McNamara was born and raised in Keokuk Iowa, watching television on a black and white Zenith that pulled in two channels. Even as a kindergartner, Mary was fan of westerns and recalls her first big television disappointment -- George Maharis' departure from the cast of Route 66. Her first crush was Man from Uncle but her one true love was the original Star Trek. Mary majored in Anthropology at the University of New Mexico and minored in skiing the back bowl of Taos. After many years of working in corporate and entertainment PR, she switched sides to indulge her life-long passion for programming. A long time resident of San Rafael California, Mary is also an avid hiker and Marin County community activist working to preserve open spaces and wildlife habitat.
