Anthony Fredrickson

Anthony Fredrickson is a scenic and graphic artist who worked on several Star Trek projects including Star Trek: The Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Star Trek: Voyager, Star Trek: Enterprise, and several. In addition, he worked on the exhibitions Star Trek: The Experience and Star Trek World Tour. Before his official Star Trek years, Fredrickson was already acquainted with Doug Drexler, and with whom he illustrated the reference book Star Fleet Medical Reference Manual. Drexler has recalled, "Anthony started out stocking shelves at the Federation Trading Post [The Star Trek store, Drexler ran in 1970s], and came along for the ride when my effects makeup career took off. A few years after I started for Mike in the art department, we needed a PA. Anthony stepped into a bottom line job, and quickly became a scenic artist when Mike promoted him." During his tenure at Deep Space Nine, he married Art Department Coordinator Penny Juday. Fredrickson has the USS Fredrickson named after him.

Apart from his regular duties in providing graphics for the show, Fredrickson occasionally lent a hand in constructing studio models. The Ty'Gokor orbital facility, Presidio Starfleet Headquarters Maquette and the Galaxy-class interior nacelle maquette are by his hand.

Beside his work on Star Trek, Fredrickson was the lab manager on the comic adaptation Dick Tracy (1990, with Hamilton Camp, Seymour Cassel, Robert Costanzo, Colm Meaney, Michael J. Pollard, John Schuck, Paul Sorvino, Ian Wolfe, and Doug Drexler) and as member of the lab effects crew on the drama For the Boys (1991). Other films on which he worked are the comedy Making Mr. Right (1987), the fantasy comedy My Demon Lover (1987), the horror sequel Poltergeist III (1988), the comedy True Identity (1991), and the drama Chaplin (1992) as well as the television series E-Ring and Dirt.

More recent credits as graphics designer include the drama The Gift: Life Unwrapped (2007, with Mickey Cottrell), the television series Cane (2007), and the comedy I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell (2009).

Fredrickson currently holds a position in the art department for the Florida based company SciFispace.com.
