Linda Decker hosts a Media  Event on the
Tall Ship Windy!

Linda is originally from St. Paul, MN and
developed her PR and production skills in
Minneapolis.  Since she’s had a radio voice
since the age of 8, Linda’s college career led
her to radio production, hosting a dance club
show and voice-overs.  Fortunately, the first
PR proposal she wrote said yes so she
continued to round out her PR skills with
indie film, avid clubbing and concert going
along the way.  She graduated from the
University of MN with a degree in English and
helped write the grant to fund another radio
station.   

She’s proud of her work with Vamp Films
(Minneapolis/LA) as writer, producer and
actress in “Influence”.  She cross-promoted
with the Loosegroove Records’ posse
(Seattle) on the “Chicago Cab” soundtrack
during its film festival run.

To complement her creative background,
Linda honed her business acumen as Project
Manager with American Express NY and AXA
Paris.  Recently she’s been Event Manager
for IMI (London/Chicago) and a writer for PR
projects with US Tennis Open, Lowe’s, Martha
Stewart and Eddie Bauer.  She is currently
improving her sailing skills and planning the
next gourmet soiree and champagne pirate
events coming to The Regal Red Witch and
Tall Ship Windy this summer.  She enjoys her
stints as a volunteer for American Red Cross,
2030 Club and Chicago World Cup.

Linda is honored to be part of the Chicago
sailing and event communities through Great
Lakes Events and Lakeshore Maritime
Collective.  

Little known facts:
Has designed haunted houses and gothic
sets since the age of 5

  • Completed a playful stint with Vincent
    Price’s Haunted Hayrides as writer,
    creative director and
  • “Akasha:  Queen  of the Damned” for 3
    years

  • Voice of WMMR Radio in Minneapolis

  • Red Witch Royale evolved from many of

All of the above leads to being known as a
professional pirate!

retains that right by becoming a mainstay within the
community.

your tangles as swiftly as she ties a cleat hitch!
