Whitley Strieber

Personal

Vocation

American author, a troubling semi-amnesia led him to seek therapy and hypnosis for the first time on 3/01/1986. He unlocked terrifying memories of being captured, examined and monitored by bug-eyed and small aliens, possibly from as early as age two. In 7/1957 he was taken at the age of 12. Ten years later, in 8/1967, he was missing 24 hours of time. As if that wasn't bad enough, he was missing an entire month of time from 1968! The memories caused him to run for years, moving erratically and having irrational memories. On 10/04/1985 and 12/26/1985 he encountered lights and aliens, along with his family, in a secluded cabin in upstate New York. His experiences in the cabin and throughout his life were related in the 1987 movie, "Communion." After being examined by a neurologist and a psychiatrist and taking tests, including a lie-detector, it was deemed he had no psychological or physiological disorder. He is the author of "The Wolfen, The Hunger" and the award-winning children's book, "Wolf Of Shadows." He is married with one son and has lived at his home in New York for the past 20 years.
