Bio: Arthur & Lynette Horn
Arthur D. Horn, Ph. D., grew up in small towns of eastern Kansas. Raised as a Christian, he became disillusioned with religious dogma as a young man and became a Darwinist. After he received his B.A. degree from the University of Colorado, he earned his Ph.D. in physical anthropology from Yale University. Dr. Horn specialized in the study of non-human primate ecology and human evolution.
After becoming aware of an existence beyond the three-dimensional, materialistic science of today, he resigned form his science position in 1990 and moved to Mount Shasta, in northern California where he resumed his research into human origins. Dr. Horn's research into human origins soon revealed the extraterrestrial (ET) phenomenon, and he eventually realized that ETs were intricately involved in the origin and development of humans.
Dr. Horn's documented research has produced a profound book, Humanity's Extraterrestrial Origins, ET Influences on Biological and Cultural Evolution, released in 1994 as a prepublication edition and a first edition in February, 1996.
