Ivan T. Sanderson was a well-known naturalist who became an investigator and author on the paranormal. While perhaps best known for his work in cryptozoology, he also wrote about UFOs, teleporting ants, and other Fortean topics. He coined many new terms, and founded SITU, the Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained. He was also famous for his involvement in the Minnesota Iceman case.
