Helen McCarthy, co-author of The Anime Encyclopedia: Revised and Expanded Edition, appeared last night on Resonance 104.4FM, London's "first radio art station," for an extensive interview with Alex Fitch on his show, "Get Ready for Your Close-Up."
They talked about the anime Helen has been curating at the Barbican for the medium's 70th anniversary, and that little subject known as the entire history of Japanese animation!

And don't forget, Helen McCarthy will be on American soil for a special appearance at A-Kon in Texas on the first weekend in June!
