ASPE founder and president Janet Sailor has been interested in the paranormal since childhood, when she learned to NOT ask questions or postulate about anything which might pit creative thinking or science against religion. She discovered Isaac Asimov, H.G. Wells and Clifford Simak when she was about eight years old, much to the dismay of her family and the nun who taught her Catechism class. In high school, Sailor learned that the "colors" she had always seen around living things were called auras and that nobody else she knew saw them. By the time she was in college, she had devoured everything she could find about and by Edgar Cayce, Nostradamas and other psychic "prophets" and moved into studies of eastern religions, reincarnation, extrasensory perception, astral travel, dream analysis, astrology and UFOs. Although raising a family and running her businesses occupied most of her time during the next few decades, Sailor continued her research into the paranormal and looked forward to a time in her life when she could expand her involvement and contribute her knowledge to the public. Now in her mid-sixties (a truly remarkable decade of life, she insists!), Sailor is a career marketing professional who owns and operates Access Media, an All Things Graphic design, publishing and printing company, and Access Images, which publishes her photographic and art images in limited and open edition archival art prints, as well as on greeting cards, calendars, t-shirts, mouse pads and other specialty items. Though not yet ready to ditch her "day job," she is fully committed to her own interest in paranormal research and to offering an opportunity for others to share her enthusiasm through ASPE. - www.aspefiles.org
