About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015.
Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
Wait a second this is not fair. The two at each opposite end look the same. awesome post. I got 3. Anyone else with better luck?
Wow, check out the bookends in that lineup. And I thought no one had cloned humans yet. LOL.
Looks like all those that were lucky enough to attend had a great line up to listen to.
Coleman, Bindernagel, Steenburg, Meldrum, Green, Burtsev, Murphy, and Miller(?).
Ah, please don’t take this personally (I’m one myself), but why does the lineup appear to consist only of old fogies/old white males?
To answer Australian-David’s question, allow me answer it with other questions:
1) were any female speakers asked to speak? Were they unable to attend?
2) were you aware that tribute talks (late that night) were also given by women (including Green’s daughter, Dahinden’s wife, etc.)?
3) are you attuned to the history of Sasquatch investigations, which have been male-dominated during Green’s early days?
4) finally, are you sure they all are strictly “white,” for others like me, might be part First Nations/Native?
Yeah, Loren. But ya’ll do fit the ‘fogey’ catagory. I’m fogey-ish myself, but it’s odd to see it so visually represented.
Kathy you appear to be right except you didn’t know which Loren was real, the first one has a reflection and the last one is not Miller.
I was close when they took this shot and don’t recall seeing two Lorens?
It was a good conference with some memorable moments, like meeting Bob Gimlin. There is something special about that man.
I got my books signed by Loren and watched him get extorted by the Russian contingent 50 bucks for his new book. I thought he should have gifted one and hoped for a good review.
My guess…
Tyler Winklevoss, Bindernagel, Steenburg, Meldrum, Green, Burtsev, Murphy, and Cameron Winklevoss.
The summit was certainly a highlight for me in recent years and it was a pleasure meeting old friends and making some new ones. My thanks go out to all involved.
