Carol Cowles - Carol has long been a fixture of Geek Culture in Charlotte. She has served for several years as the Programming Director for ConCarolinas and worked the Carolina and Arizona Renaissance Festivals for 15 years. She also podcasts – she is Carol the Cat on the weekly Guardians of the Geekery and The Cinemistress on Geek Radio Daily. When she is not podcasting – she is reading, writing or crafting. If you have trouble locating her, check your local cineplex, as movie theatres are her second home. Her fandoms include all things Tolkien, Doctor Who, Horror and skulls – lots of skulls.

You can find her on the interwebs at www.guardiansofthegeekery.com, www.geekradiodaily.com or www.purplehairedpixie.com
