Biography
A Virginia emergency physician who left medicine in 1998 to devote himself to ufology. He founded CSETI in 1990, with protocols for seeking contact with extraterrestrial intelligence, and in 1993 the Disclosure Project, through which he gathered some twenty former military officers and officials at the National Press Club in 2001 to call for congressional hearings. That conference set the format later adopted by institutional disclosure; his later drift —the documentary 'Sirius', which presented as extraterrestrial a skeleton that turned out to be human— distanced him from the witnesses he had gathered.

Some twenty former military personnel, officials and contractors, among them John Callahan, former head of the FAA's Accidents and Investigations division, and Robert Salas, a former missile launch officer, told the press they had witnessed UFO events or their cover-up. They called for open congressional hearings, an executive order protecting witnesses, declassification and a law banning weapons in space. No hearings followed. Some testimonies hold up in other case files and others remained unverified; Philip Klass criticized the conference for mixing the request with other agendas and for excluding critics.
