I ended up doing it myself.

I found a 3rd party add-on for Django, which initially looked very good, until
I realized it didn't store date/times in UTC, and for my application I need to
be able to sort by date and time.  This requires storing the date/times in UTC.
So I have two fields, one for the datetime in UTC, and another one for the
timezone. I have a template filter (or tag - my memory is fuzzy) to convert the
UTC time to the specified timezone for displaying.
