Jeff Prucher, mysteriously talking in the third person, de-lurks long enough to
note that the interview in "Across the Wounded Galaxies" (AWG) was apparently
conducted in 1986 (according to a review of AWG in SF Studies:
http://www.depauw.edu/sfs/reviews_pages/r55.htm).  This doesn't mean that
they're not the same interview of course, but the SF Studies review does not
mention that they had previously published the AWG, as one might expect.  There
is also an extremely brief excerpt of the AWG interview here:

If you don't want to shell out the dough for the book, I recommend getting it
through interlibrary loan.
