Richard Dolan

Richard M. Dolan, born July 1, 1962, is an American author, historian, and prominent UFO researcher advocating for government disclosure on UAP phenomena. Holding a master's degree in history from the University of Rochester, a bachelor's from Alfred University, and a certificate in political theory from Oxford University as a Rhodes Scholar finalist, his academic background in Cold War studies sparked his UFO interest. Key achievements include his seminal multi-volume series 'UFOs and the National Security State,' providing meticulous historical analysis of UFOs and national security implications. He co-authored 'A.D. After Disclosure' with Bryce Zabel, exploring post-disclosure scenarios, and recently published 'A History of USOs: Unidentified Submerged Objects.' Dolan appeared on SyFy's 'Sci Fi Investigates,' analyzing cases like Roswell, and features in documentaries and podcasts on disclosure, abductions, and military encounters. His scholarly rigor has elevated UFO research credibility.
