This will be the 3rd Lifetime Achievement Awards in Psychohistory Ceremony established by The Psychohistory Forum. This special meeting will be conducted during the International Psychohistorical Association’s Annual Conference rather than following our traditional format. This 2-hour meeting will be dedicated to honoring C. Fred Alford; David J. Fisher; Daniel Rancour-Laferriere; and William M. Runyan). Each recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award in Psychohistory will be presented/advocated by their colleague (Marshall Alcorn for C. Fred Alford; William Nye for David J. Fisher; Jim Anderson for William M. Runyan; & Paul Elovitz for Daniel Rancour-Laferriere), and then, each will respond/reflect on what was said or on the occasion in general. During this May 19th, 2023, meeting, we will watch a short montage of the previous (1-14-23 and 3-18-23) award ceremonies. At the end, there will be a room for general discussion.
