Dr Clyde Snow is a leading forensic anthropologist. He holds degrees from New Mexico Military Institute (Roswell), New Mexico University, Texas Technical University, and a PhD in anthropology from University of Arizona. He began his career with the Civil Aero Medical Institute (CAMI) as an examiner of wrecked planes.
In 1985 Dr. Snow provided forensic evidence that helped an Argentine court bring paramilitary members involved in the 1970s murders of nearly 20,000 Argentine citizens to justice. He later headed a team of forensic experts identifying human remains of over 200,000 Guatemalan citizens killed in its protracted 36-year civil war, and has worked in almost every country in Latin America and many others around the world. His work is painstaking because the murder victims lack important information such as medical records necessary for such a mission. Dr. Snow is one of the chief advisors at the Institute for International Criminal Investigations. He is affiliated with the United Nations Human Rights Commission and involved with Americas Watch.
