A student here is putting together a list of famous people who have died of
HIV-related causes. Can anybody help?

Define famous.

Entertainment figures only, or other realms?

For example, would Michel Foucault be considered "famous," although
he's most well known to grad students and college professors?

Just wondering.

The obvious place to ask is the names project also known in various parts of
the world as the AIDS quilt project. In case you don't know, they organise
panels in memory of famous, named and anomymous people who died of AIDS and
display it to raise awareness, etc. It's really impressive. They'll have a
branch in your state if you don't like in too obscure a state, I should think.
Or else try your local queentown (SF, NYC...)

Yours safely,

Eric
