Alana Shepherd is a theatrical and architectural lighting designer and an advocate for LGBTQ rights. In this conversation, we talk about light, equity, identity, and design.
In this episode, I sit down with Alana Shepard. Alana Shepherd is the founding principal of Intangible Light. She has a MFA in Lighting Design from Carnegie Mellon University and a BA in Theatre from Eastern Washington University. Notable accomplishments and projects include the W Hotel Times Square (IES Illumination Award; with BOLD, LLC), Thompson Hotel Miami Beach (IES Illumination Award; with BOLD, LLC), and the programming and control system design for the Times Square Ball (with Focus Lighting, Inc.).
She founded the North American Coalition of Lighting Industry Queers, an explicitly transgender & non-binary inclusive organization providing advocacy and support for LGBTQIA+ lighting professionals.
In this conversation, Alana and I talk about her body of work as a designer, her advocacy and how fully realizing who she was as a person informed and improved her design work.
We also geek out about lighting controls, programming, and the problem with long LED life.
