Celebrated Roswell expert Donald Schmitt presents "Roswell--What the government doesn't want you to know" at Skoke Theatre Music Foundation, May 23rd, 2010 at 2pm.

Donald R. Schmitt is the former co-director of the J. Allen Hynek Center for UFO Studies, where he served as Director of Special Investigations for ten years. Prior to that, he was a special investigator for the late Dr. J. Allen Hynek and the art director for the International UFO Reporter.

The basis of Schmitt's research and consultation has been the theme of many documentaries including the highly acclaimed UFO Secret: The Roswell Crash, two-time British Academy Award (BAFTA) winner producer, John Purdie's The Roswell Incident, Roswell: Cover-ups and Close Encounters, UFOs: 50 Years of Denial, and hosted the production of The X Chronicles.  By far his greatest achievement was the Golden Globe Best Picture nominated motion picture ROSWELL, which was based on the first book.
