The __dict__ option described elsewhere will work, but could introduce
some interesting name clashes (depending on the exact names in use).
Another option is to use the values() clause on a queryset. This
modifies a query set to return a dictionary of values, rather than a
list of objects (or a single object, in the case of get):
>>> User.objects.values('username','email').get(pk=1)
{'username': u'freakboy', 'email': u'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'}
