by James McAndrew
Born in 1963, James McAndrew is known for The Roswell Report: Case Closed and related work on the Roswell incident. Contemporary editions identify him as a U.S. Air Force officer serving on the Secretary of the Air Force Declassification and Review Team at the Pentagon.
He also worked with Col. Richard L. Weaver on The Roswell Report: Fact vs. Fiction in the New Mexico Desert, part of the Air Force's effort to review records connected to claims about a 1947 UFO crash near Roswell, New Mexico. His writing is closely tied to official research, declassification, and the careful review of government documents.
For listeners interested in UFO history, McAndrew's work stands out because it approaches a legendary story through military records and investigative reporting rather than mythmaking. That background gives his books a direct, document-driven voice that still speaks to a wider fascination with the Roswell story.
