First Fandom Hall of Fame is an annual award for contributions to the field of science fiction dating back more than 30 years. Contributions can be as a fan, writer, editor, artist, agent, or any combination of the five. It is awarded by First Fandom and is usually presented at the beginning of the World Science Fiction Convention's Hugo Award ceremony.
In 1994, the "Posthumous Hall of Fame award was established as a separate and equal award with unique criteria".[1] This article, presently, is not clear in making this distinction.
