Timeline
The newszine takes its name from the legendary party that ran continuously for two days in Room 770 at Nolacon, the 9th World Science Fiction Convention in 1951, that upstaged that convention and entered fannish lore as a result.
File 770 is a paper fanzine that appears once or twice a year and is also available in e-form; it also has a regular daily on-line presence in the fannish blogosphere with the latest in news from around science fiction and fandom.
Mike Glyer (born February 16, 1953) is both the editor and publisher of the long-running science fiction fan newszine File 770.
LASFS,” has been presented annually since 1966.
Glyer has been active in LASFS, the Los Angeles Science Fantasy Society since 1970, frequently serving as club secretary.
Glyer started the fanzine in 1978 to report on clubs, conventions, fannish projects, fans, fanzines, awards, and to publish articles like "Is Your Club Dead Yet?", written in what has been described as a "no-nonsense style".
Glyer's one professional fiction sale appeared in the book Alternate Worldcons, edited by Mike Resnick.
That short story, "The Men Who Corflued Mohammed," is a fannish homage to Alfred Bester's "The Men Who Murdered Mohammed."
He previously co-chaired the science fiction convention Westercon 31, held in Los Angeles in 1978, that was inspired by its Baskin-Robbins-esque number to hold the first "Ice Cream Social" at a regional science fiction convention; a similar ice cream social had been held in 1969 at St. Louiscon, the 27th World Science Fiction Convention in St. Louis, MO.
Mike was made a fan guest of honor for the first time at the 1981 DeepSouthCon in Atlanta, partly because the con committee thought his LASFS minutes were so amusing that they had to be made up.
Glyer protested that funny things were happening all round him and he just wrote them down – rather like Vincent van Gogh claiming "I just paint what I see."
