Craig Gralley's Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute

We look forward to hosting author Craig Gralley on June 3rd at 3 p.m. for a presentation of his history of the former NASA and NSA facility now known as the PARI or the Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute. Gralley, a former CIA senior executive, was an analyst, manager, and chief speechwriter for three agency directors. He’s now a freelance writer and the author of Hall of Mirrors—Virginia Hall: America’s Greatest Spy of World War II, a Kirkus Reviews “Best Book.” His work has been published in the Washington Post, World War II Magazine, Elan, and the literary journal The Sun, among others. Craig graduated with honors from Allegheny College in Meadville, Pennsylvania, and holds master’s degrees from Georgetown University and Johns Hopkins University.
