Stewart Galanor
Stewart Galanor was born in 1943 in Manhattan and currently lives there . He
became interested in the JFK assassination when it happened. The event itself
led him to consider that it might well have been the result of a conspiracy, but
when Jack Ruby killed Oswald, Galanor became certain of it. He immediately began
studying the subject, collecting articles, etc. The next summer (1964) he
attended one of Mark Lane's lectures and was very impressed by it. He joined
Lane's Citizen's Commission of Inquiry and became one of three persons who
researched the subject and gave their results to Lane. Most of Galanor's
findings later appeared in Lane's book Rush to Judgment. Between 1964 and
1966, Galanor concentrated on the medical evidence and on interviewing
witnesses. Among his interviewees were several witnesses who reported seeing
smoke on the grassy knoll, presumably from a weapon being fired.
After graduating from college, Galanor taught mathematics for 20 years,
mostly at Columbia Preparatory School, and stopped working on the assassination.
While teaching, he wrote the books Calculus: A Visual Approach and The
Paradox of Tristram Shandy. Recently he became a multimedia consultant and
technical writer for financial institutions and the television industry. He then
returned to the assassination and in 1998 published Cover-Up, a book
designed to present the evidence for conspiracy and cover-up in the
assassination in clear, concise, and organized way. Cover-Up has been
received very positively in the JFK community. Unlike most JFK books, it doesn't
speculate on who killed him, because it doesn't have the evidence.
