Cryptozoologist of the Year 2014: Bill Munns

From Loren Coleman’s CryptoZooNews:

The Year 2014 saw some intriguing discoveries made and research revealed. One individual stands out in the field of Bigfoot research, Sasquatch studies, and cryptozoology for his work in pushing forward serious, thoughtful, analytic work on a specific piece of evidence – the Patterson-Gimlin footage. That person is our “Cryptozoologist of the Year 2014.” He is Bill Munns.

Who is this person?

William “Bill” Munns has been a makeup and special effects artist in Hollywood for decades, and a filmmaker in general, as well. He applies his unique perspective to the analysis of the famed October 20, 1967 Patterson-Gimlin film. In the last seven years, Munns assembled the finest image data archive on film and photographic material related to this classic “Bigfoot” mystery, and analyzed the apparent unknown hairy biped seen in the film with state-of-the-art analysis technology. His 2014 presentation in Yakima, “When Roger Met Patty,” and his 2014 book, When Roger Met Patty, were the culmination of that seven year research program. After 47 years, the Patterson-Gimlin footage has a serious in-depth study for all to consider. For this, we thank and recognize Bill Munns.
