Susan & Robert Swiatek-MUFON Director and Investigators

When "Interrupted Journey" exploded onto the scene in 1966, Susan was hooked on the UFO and abduction mystery. Even as a child, she was fascinated by the nature of "flying saucers.” A long time Mutual UFO (MUFON) member, Susan hosted the 1999 Symposium near Washington, DC. She has lectured and created artwork for several book projects such as Richard Halls "The UFO Evidence—Part II" and the "Extraterrestrial Encyclopedia" compiled by Ron Story. She was also a major consultant on “Grassroots UFOS” by Michael Swords. Susan is currently the MUFON Virginia state director and on the executive committee of the Fund for UFO Research. Susan holds a BFA degree from the Maryland Institute College of Art, Baltimore and works in the publishing field. Roberts degrees in physics and earth science paved the way for a career at the US Patent Office where he is a Physics Examiner in Aerospace Technology. Robert has lectured at conferences throughout the US and contributed writing to numerous UFO projects and titles, especially for the Fund for UFO Research (FUFOR). Robert is frequently seen turning up on the Discovery or History channels in various productions. He has served as Secretary-Treasurer of both FUFOR (since 1986) and the UFO Research Coalition (URC) since 1997. Robert has been on the Board of MUFON since 2004.
