Amy Richau is a freelance writer and researcher. Her first book, Star Wars: I Love You. I Know.: Lessons in Love and Friendship came out in early 2021. When she’s not interviewing women who worked on Star Wars projects for her website, 365 Star Wars, she’s dreaming of the day she finally properly displays all of her Star Wars collectibles.
