The ceremony was held in beautiful Royce Hall on the campus of UCLA.
I called UCLA home for four-plus years while I earned my bachelor’s degree in history and biology.
I got to go to the Annie Awards where Mark Hammill was the host. I forgot which year that was, but my best guess was the 24th Annie Awards held in 1996.
A college roommate had an extra ticket and knew I was a huge Star Wars fan. I was able to get a photo with “Luke Skywalker” that night!
