Bill Konkolesky has been the State Director for the Michigan Chapter of the Mutual UFO Network since 2004. Prior to this, he was MUFON International’s Web Designer and Webmaster from 2000-2004. Konkolesky is a regular lecturer on the UFO phenomenon at conferences, public libraries, and other venues. He has also appeared in or consulted for televised UFO documentaries for Netflix, History Channel, Discovery Channel, Science Channel, National Geographic Channel, SyFy, and ABC. He has written two autobiographical books on the abduction phenomenon, “Experiencer: Raised in Two Worlds,” as well as its sequel, “Experiencer 2: Two Worlds Collide” and contributed to six other books on the UFO phenomenon. Konkolesky joined his state MUFON chapter in 1993 after reporting a personal sighting of three strange craft seen together in the night sky making anomalous maneuvers, witnessed by himself, two friends, and a co-worker. Just months later, in March, 1994, Michigan would have a major UFO event on the shores of Lake Michigan that would hook Konkolesky into committing his time and energy as part of MUFON to this day.
