Biography
| Richard
Hall was born December 25, 1930, in Hartford, Connecticut. When the
Korean War was imminent, Richard enlisted in the fledgling U.S. Air
Force in 1949 and served into early 1951, followed by six years in the
Air Force Reserve. After returning to civilian life he enrolled at
Tulane University, New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1954. Attracted by then
emerging news about sightings of "flying saucers" (UFOs) in the 1950s
he opted to make himself available to the National Investigations
Committee on Aerial Phenomena (NICAP) then being formed. After working
for NICAP for about 10 years, Hall resigned to find paying work because
of his impending marriage. For a number of years thereafter, he worked
for various trade associations in Washington, D.C., and for some
"Beltway Bandit" consulting firms as a writer-editor. His final formal
job before semi-retirement was as an abstractor-indexer at
Congressional Information Service, Bethesda, Maryland for about 10
years. (See full resume below.) Hall served as Chairman of the Fund for
UFO Research, 1993-1998, and is the author of several books. He was
selected to be listed in Marquis Who's Who in the East. Until his death
he is a part-time abstractor-indexer for a Washington, D.C., consulting
firm that manages an online database for the National Institute on
Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, of the National Institutes of Health.
