Aussiecon (1975) Worldcon - Ursula K. Le Guin Guest of Honor Speech

AussieCon, the 33rd Worldcon, was held in Melbourne, Australia in 1975. Guest of Honor Ursula K. Le Guin gave an insightful and entertaining speech about the state of science fiction, and her part in it. There's a real sense of community evident here, as well as a delightful sense of humor (look for the propeller beanie). Le Guin's comments on the place of women in the field are particularly interesting. The bearded gentleman who introduces her is Robin Johnson, chairman of Aussiecon. Thanks to S.C.I.F.I. for digitizing, and to Elayne Pelz for providing us the footage. For more Fan History, visit Fanac.org and Fancyclopedia.org .
