  • Hugo Awards Ceremony Program
    "Presented at the ^Millennium Philcon, the 59th World Science Fiction Convention Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the United States of -America On the 2ni1 of September, 200/ Toastmistress: Esther Friesner The Big Heart -Award The Big Heart Award is given annually at Worldcons over many decades to recognize and honor active fans (pros not excepted) who have demonstrated their “big hearts” within our fannish community by their camaraderie, dedicated altruism, and their helpful, friendly acts. It was established by Forrest J Ackerman and Walter Daugherty as a memorial to fan/pro E. Everett Evans. Presented by David Kyle The First Fandom Hall of Fame The First Fandom Hall of Fame Award is presented to someone who has given a lifetime of service to science fiction fandom. First Fandom has two categories of members Original First Fandom: Affectionately known as the ‘Dinosaurs of Science Fiction’, these fans helped create fandom and have participated in SF fandom since 1939 or earlier. Associates: Those who have given thirty or more years of service to fandom but are not ‘Dinosaurs.’ From his first letter published in The Comet, and his introduction to fandom shortly after the second Worldcon, Chicon 1, Frank Robinson has stayed active in both publishing and fandom. He has helped create and edit both fanzines and pro SF magazines. At least two of his books have become movies. His nonfiction books, Pulp Culture and Science Fiction: An Illustrated History offered insightful looks at the literature and culture of SF. Science Fiction: An Illustrated History won the Hugo for Best Related Book last year in Chicago and, Frank believes, was responsible for his receiving of this years First Fandom Hall of Fame Award.
