SOONER SAUCERS: OKLAHOMA UFOS 1947-1969

Oklahoma based author Marilyn A. Hudson has been called the 'genie of bizarre historical research' (1) and her fiction writing has been described as 'darkly poetic' (2)...

"Her nonfiction delivers the stories and events that missed the major history books and her fiction stirs the imagination."
 

The latest book by this author is a survey of the stories of things seen in the sky and on the ground in Oklahoma from 1947-1969, entitled SOONER SAUCERS. Hudson's previous work featured tales and people from Oklahoma's Gilded Age with Oklahoma Bad Girls.

She started writing by authoring essays, articles, and editorials in a number of periodicals, serving as a contributing editor for two and as a newspaper stringer in Enid, Oklahoma.  Over the years she has been newsletter editor for several organizational newsletters.

She has presented workshops, speeches and shared stories to a diverse range of audiences she kept spellbound and engaged.
