The B. Aubrey Fisher Memorial Lecture
About the Lecture
The B. Aubrey Fisher Memorial Lecture was established by the Department of Communication in 1986 to recognize Professor Fisher's outstanding achievements and to provide a forum for presenting original research and theory in communication.
Aubrey Fisher began his professional career as a high schoolteacher and radio announcer in South Dakota. After receiving his Masters and Ph.D. degrees from the University of Minnesota, he spent four years on the faculty at the University of Missouri.
As a faculty member at the University of Utah from 1971 to 1986, he was not only a most generous and committed departmental citizen, but he was also one of its most highly recognized ambassadors. Professor Fisher was an interpersonal communication specialist, as well as a communication theorist, whose work was required reading in communication courses throughout the field. His published work includes three books and more than 35 articles and book chapters. A former president of the Western Speech Communication Association and of the International Communication Association, he also served as editor of the finest regional journal in communication, the Western Speech Communication Journal.
