William Leonard Moore (born October 31, 1943), known as Bill Moore, is an author and former researcher of unacknowledged official activities involving secret government interactions with aliens and development of exotic technologies who was prominent from the late 1970s to the late 1980s. He co-authored two books with Charles Berlitz, including The Roswell Incident.
Activities
Interested in UFOs since he was a teenager, Moore attended Thiel College, located in Greenville, Pennsylvania, graduating in 1965. He taught language and humanities at various high schools and later became the Arizona state section director of the MUFON. He eventually left teaching to pursue a career as a freelance writer. [1]
Moore wrote The Philadelphia Experiment - Project Invisibility with Charles Berlitz in 1979, about an alleged naval military experiment popularly known as the Philadelphia Experiment aboard the USS Eldridge in 1943.
In 1980, Moore wrote The Roswell Incident with writing partner Charles Berlitz, which alleged the Roswell incident involved the crash of an extraterrestrial spacecraft.
In May 1987, Moore, along with ufologists Jaime Shandera and Stanton Friedman, circulated the MJ-12 documents, which purported the existence of a high-level policymaking group overseeing UFOs and extraterrestrials. [2]
At a 1989 MUFON conference, Moore admitted to engaging in disinformation activities against Paul Bennewitz on behalf of Richard Doty and the AFOSI. [3]
Alleged disinformation activities
Moore has been associated with claims that he was a controlled disclosure agent and/or disinformation agent. According to a theory, Moore may have agreed to his controversial role in exchange for access to classified information and personal safety, while also being tasked with dividing the UFO community and obscuring sensitive truths.
