Program Participant
Randy Smith
Randy Smith has been in fandom for thirty years (or probably longer, but he doesn't want to think about it). During that time he has collected comics and old prozines, written fanzine articles, played role-playing and other stfnal games, pubbed APAzines, volunteered at conventions, organized book discussion groups, posted to online fannish forums, appeared as a convention program participant, and on extremely rare occasions has worn a costume or sung a filk song. As an ordained United Methodist pastor he has even conducted worship services at conventions (like this one!). He is married to the beautiful Tupou Fakava-Smith and is the step-father of the wondrous Elizabeth.
