NYU Speech I was in New York to give a speech to NYU students and others at the NYU student center. Lately, I’ve been trying to boost my income by making speeches at various colleges and universities, most of which will be scheduled this spring. (Anybody need a speaker –let me know.) Anyway, I really enjoy talking to college students. Generally they’re enthusiastic and knowledgeable. I led off by talking about why I valued the comic art form so highly, then talked about how the American Splendor movie came about. The rest of the evening was Q&A. The room was filled with students who asked me. Intelligent questions and were very courteous. By way of showing my appreciation I stated until I’d answered all the question, signed all the autographs and gotten my picture taken as often as people wanted. 4:44:06 PM
