In Memoriam: Stan Winston (1946-2008)
The Center for the Study of Film and History was deeply saddened by the news of the death of Stan Winston. For those who were attending especially to meet this Hollywood legend, we are sharing a portion of Mr. Winston's final correspondence to us, from February 2008, a note that demonstrates his generous consideration of our conference during his final months:
Dear Loren,
I am very honored by your request to have me as your Key Note Speaker. I have been a Key Note Speaker in the past, and I believe it to be an important responsibility. I wouldn’t want you to think that I am someone who reneges, but, to be honest, the chances are that I will not have the time or the energy that I feel it takes to create a Key Note Speech....
Sincerely,
Stan Winston
