New link updated March 20, 2000:

Thanks to the New York Times, you can hear an audio version of "Virginia Woolf: Writing Life:   An evening celebrating the legacy of Virginia Woolf,  sponsored by the PEN American Center. Recorded on  March 9, 2000 at Manhattan's Town Hall." This event featured Michael Cunningham, Mary Gordon, Fiona Shaw and other writers and celebrities celebrating Woolf's life and work.
You will need Realplayer, and there are links for downloading a free copy from the New York Times page featuring the event. You now have to go to the New York Times website (and you may need to register, but it's free). Go to the books section, then click on "Specials/Audio" in the left column. Try going directly to the books section at http://www.nytimes.com/books/home/
