Web Timeline

Fall, 1995
He was the the University of Minnesota's Winton Scholar and Edelstein-Keller Visiting Writer. This link contains a short biography. He's listed in their calendar as well.

Being at the University of Minnesota - Minneapolis Campus, he made appearances in that area in the fall of 1995. A number of them are listed in the November, 1995 issue of Einblatt, the monthly events calendar of The Minnesota Science Fiction Society.

September, 1995
He was also a Distinguished Visiting Writer in the English Department of the University of Idaho for two weeks in September 1995. They have a prospectus of their courses mentioning him. Read Matt Baldwin's interview of him. Lance Olsen had a promo page for the workshop Delany taught there. The link doesn't work anymore, alas.

August, 1995
He was the guest of honor at Intersection (WorldCon '95), the 53rd World Science Fiction Convention. Look at his picture. The Intersection web sites seem not to be working anymore, but it really did happen, according to Greg's list of SF conventions and a German fanzine.

June, 1995
He introduces Video Spaces, an exhibition at The Museum of Modern Art, New York.

March, 1995
He attends the Black Nation/Queer Nation? conference in New York City. I found this in a review of a documentary made at that conference.

April, 1991
He spoke to the Swarthmore Warders of Imaginative Literature in April, 1991. They mention it in one of their Newsletters.

September, 1989
You can buy a video of him speaking at Noreascon Three, which was also the 50th Anniversary Worldcon.
