Jay Stratton, the former director of the U.S. government's Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force, is publishing a memoir about non-human intelligent life and the government's handling of the subject.
According to Deadline Hollywood, Stratton's memoir is titled Out of the Shadows: Revealing the Truth About Non-Human Intelligent Life and will be published by William Morrow.
Stratton has led the U.S. government's modern investigation into UAP and extraterrestrial contact. He has access to classified files and evidence related to these investigations.
The announcement comes almost two years after Deadline first reported in September 2024 that Stratton was writing the memoir. Since then, anticipation among UFO enthusiasts and the general public has grown.
Stratton's background in government intelligence gives the book credibility. His insider access to documented evidence distinguishes it from unverified accounts.
William Morrow is publishing the book as a major non-fiction release. When a former government intelligence official publishes on this subject, public interest typically follows.
The memoir is forthcoming.
