Honest Intellectual Inquiry:
The History of TusCon
It all started one night in the summer of 1974
when Jim Corrick and I were sitting on the front steps of the house of our
friend Nancy Mairs after a science
fiction meeting (I remember the sky looking something like this
background). We decided that Tucson should have a Science Fiction
convention, and simultaneously came up with the name "TusCon." After that,
it was 'merely' a matter of getting it all arranged, pooling our paltry
resources to finance it, and voila, TusCon was born.
For several years I have been threatening
promising to put together a page on the history of TusCon. And here it is,
with many thanks to Brian Gross, Jim Corrick, Wolf Forrest, Trini Ruiz, and
Gloria McMillan....
