Ahsoka Tano & The Second Baseman: Ashley and David Eckstein

Ashley Eckstein attended her first-ever fan convention back in October 2008 at Star Wars Fan Days in Plano, Texas, where she sat down with Jimmy Mac for her first-ever one-on-one in-person Star Wars interview. Ashley discusses her then-new character, Ahsoka Tano, and the impact she’s had on both boys and girls, along with the relationship she has with Anakin Skywalker, and the way Ahsoka will continue to grow as THE CLONE WARS proceeds. Ashley also talks about how her own personality and confidence comes through Ahsoka, along with some behind-the-scenes stories. Ashley’s husband, former MLB infielder/2006 World Series MVP David Eckstein joins the conversation. David talks about the similarities between baseball fans and Star Wars fans, along with how life has changed since his wife became a Jedi Knight.
