Erin Finnegan
Erin Finnegan began writing for PopCultureShock in 2005, and collaborated on the name "Manga Recon" with webmaster Jon Haehnle. Originally, she had ambitious plans for a podcast by the same name as part of the Ninja Consultant Podcast and in collaboration with the MangaCast. Instead, writing for PopCultureShock lead to more review work with OtakuUSA and Publisher's Weekly. Erin still contributes to Manga Recon sporadically, but her career in animation pays the bills.
