SPEAKING Engagements



HP Newquist regularly speaks to groups about his books as well as about the process of writing. He has spoken to universities, business conferences, teacher's groups, and grade schools about subjects ranging from science and technology to modern music and education.

"I've been lucky enough to give speeches all over the world. Primarily on technology, occasionally on writing, and once in a while on the subject of music. It's always been interesting, and at times it's been a study in contrasts. At one end, I spoke to a group of bankers in Kuala Lumpur about advanced technology. On the distant other end, I spent an afternoon giving a lecture to West Virginia college kids on thinking machines. I've given briefings to executives at IBM, and I've told stories to first graders. It's made for some very interesting discussions: I once told a roomful of European business executives in Frankfurt that they were behind the times in technology, and then told a group of librarians in Arizona to expect that technology would change everything they ever knew.

"I still do it on occasion, if the subject matter is right. "
