Maya Angelou Cancels Nov. 1 Lecture at Montana State University
Dr. Maya Angelou, who was scheduled to speak at Montana State University on November 1st, will no longer be able to attend her upcoming speaking engagement.
"Due to recent changes in her health, I am advising Dr. Angelou that all speaking engagements that require overnight travel be canceled in the immediate future," said Dr. Jeff Williamson, Dr. Angelou’s physician at Wake Forest University Medical Center. "I am requesting to Dr. Angelou to stay close to home where I can monitor her condition regularly. I greatly regret having to recommend this knowing that it will be a disappointment to not only her but to the individuals and institutions to whom she would be lecturing," Williamson added.
"While we are disappointed that Dr. Angelou will not be able to attend, we understand and support her physician’s decision, which was made for her overall health," said Carmen McSpadden, the director of the MSU Leadership Institute, a key organizer of the lecture. "We apologize for any inconvenience that this has caused and we hope that Dr. Angelou is able to recover quickly and fully," McSpadden added.
