Cathy Veness is a Kenner and Star Wars toy legend.

She worked on the 3.75” and 12” action figure lines, on characters like Yoda, Leia, and Han Solo. And George Lucas paid her the highest compliment a toy designer could receive for her work on the Ewoks plush line.

A master of soft goods design, she helped create some of the most iconic pieces that Star Wars fans loved as children and collect today.

And Cathy brought her unique perspective and power to innovate to many of the biggest toy companies during her 50-year career in the industry. She helped Kenner, Tyco, Playmates, Toy Biz and others successfully expand their reach in highly competitive markets.

Join host David Quinn for an inspiring and insightful conversation with Cathy, as she recounts highlights from her career, including some of the most amazing Star Wars stories toy collectors will love!
