Nick’s interest in UFOs dates back to the late 1970s and stems from an incident that his father was involved in while serving on radar with the Royal Air Force in the 1950s. After leaving school in 1981, Nick joined a rock music and fashion magazine, Zero, and was trained in many areas of journalism, writing, magazine production, and photography. He began writing on the UFO subject in a freelance capacity in the mid 1980s.

Currently Nick writes for numerous magazines and journals, including Graham Birdsall’s best-selling news-stand publications UFO Magazine and The Unopened Files. He has also written for Military Illustrated; X-Factor; Alien Encounters; the London Express newspaper; has his own news feature on UFOs, mysteries, the paranormal and conspiracy theories that is published in four British newspapers; and has acted as a consultant to the London Daily Mail and People newspapers.

Nick Redfern writes a monthly column on UFOs for the website Destination Space. He also co-writes a bi-weekly column for the website UFO City. In addition, Nick has a monthly, 3-hour link-up with the Jeff Rense Sightings radio show in the USA to discuss the latest UFO news from the U.K.

He has appeared on a wide variety of television programmes in the U.K. and abroad and is in constant demand on the lecture circuit both in his home country and overseas. Nick’s books are available in the U.K., the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Poland and will shortly available in a number of other countries including Russia and Portugal.
