Kathleen Marden is an award-winning researcher, author, on camera expert, hypnosis practitioner, and international conference presenter. She is widely considered one of the leading UFO contact researchers of our time. Since 1990, she has researched and experienced the perplexing nature of contact with the non-human entities. She has worked on three comprehensive studies on nearly 5,000 experiencers and has six professionally published books.

She the recipient of the 2021 International UFO Congress "Lifetime Achievement Award." In 2003, the Mutual UFO Network publicly recognized Kathy for her outstanding contribution of advancing the scientific study of the UFO phenomenon and demonstrating positive leadership. For 10 years, she served as MUFON’s Director of Field Investigator Training and was MUFON’s Director of Experiencer Research from 2011-2021. MUFON honored Kathy with its 2012 “Researcher of the Year” award.  

Beginning in 2012, she experienced life-changing events that radically altered her worldview and changed the course of her life’s work from UFO and contact investigation to the study of consciousness and our multidimensional universe. Prior to this she had straddled the uneasy path between scientific materialism and paranormal studies. This profound event and its aftermath led to her spiritual awakening and transformation.

Her interest in UFOs and contact began in 1961, when her aunt and uncle, Betty and Barney Hill had a close encounter and subsequent abduction in New Hampshire’s White Mountains. She spent fifteen years in painstaking investigation of the Hill abduction case and, as our technology progresses, she continues to seek scientific analysis of the compelling evidence. 

Her bestseller with nuclear physicist Stanton T. Friedman (1934-2019) is “Captured! The Betty and Barney Hill UFO Experience.” She and Stanton authored two additional books “Science Was Wrong” and “Fact, Fiction, and Flying Saucers.” Her book with Denise Stoner “The Alien Abduction Files” includes her investigation of six inter-generational cases of ET contact. Her fifth book “Extra Terrestrial Contact: What to Do When You’ve Been Abducted” is a comprehensive guide to abduction phenomena. Read her latest bestseller “Forbidden Knowledge: A Personal Journey from Alien Abduction to Spiritual Transformation” for deeper insight into Kathleen’s own contact experiences, experiments, life, and works. Her books are available in all formats on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Autographed copies can be purchased (in the United States) on her website at www.kathleen-marden.com.
