    Inaugural? Not so much. Appreciate the plug, guys, but you need to read a couple of grafs further:

    “Created in 1992 by then-President Ben Bova and named after famed author and screenwriter Ray Bradbury, the Bradbury Award is a special president’s award presented for outstanding genre-themed work in a dramatic medium. Previous Bradbury Award winners are James Cameron for Terminator 2 (1992), J. Michael Straczynski for Babylon 5 (1999) and Yuri Rasovsky and Harlan Ellison for 2000X – Tales of the Next Millennia, a National Public Radio series (2001).”
