This past June (2022), there was a conference on orthogonal polynomials and special functions, dedicated to Dick Askey, held (remotely) at CRM in Montreal.
There was a day’s program with talks from former students and colleagues about the role of Dick in their work. Two of Dick’s students, Dennis Stanton, Charles Dunkl and Shaun Cooper gave talks. Program materials are currently being organized into a more publishable form and are forthcoming.
