Upsana Dixit (2491-2563) was a Human journalist, news anchor, showrunner, and Spectrum show host. Born in 2491 in Quinton, Angeli (Croshaw II), she created Showdown! in 2511 as a 30-minute long current events debate audio program. After amassing a significant following, it was purchased by SSN/CAtv and converted to a Spectrum broadcast show in 2521. Dixit impartially moderated Showdown! until she retired in 2546 in protest of Ivar Messer I's rise to power. She died at age 72 in an earthquake in her hometown Quinton in 2563.
