Erik Esse

Erik Esse started out in the arts as a founder and director of Galumph Interactive Theater (1992-2002) and a staffer at the Independent Television Service (ITVS). Taking a long detour into the worlds of worker cooperatives, organic food, and Fair Trade, he returned to the fold as Membership & Marketing Director at IFP Media Arts in early 2009. He's glad to be back.
