A Letter from Charles Bowen, July 8, 1966 - Not An Authority on Anything

John Keel sitemaster Doug Skinner leads off three posts concerning the human interaction with the UFO phenomenon, and in the process inaugurates a file of correspondence John had with Flying Saucer Review editor Charles Bowen. Skinner suggests the letters between Keel and Bowen "offer glimpses into the vagaries of ufology and publication in the '60s." Malcolm Smith contributes a remarkable and truly startling piece about human greed and folly from about the same time period in Traitors to the Human Race. And Bloomberg Businessweek's Ashlee Vance offers a tale just as compelling with "the greatest nonfiction story never told" in The Forgotten Legend of Silicon Valley's Flying Saucer Man. It's actually a beautiful account within an amazing tale about an art dealer's obsession to make famous an inventive genius's artwork, life, and especially eerily "UFO-like" aircraft drawings and dreams. The article and embedded video help further that purpose and make animate for both men the old Egyptian proverb "To speak of the dead is to make them live again." (WM)
