Biography
American forensic anthropologist, whose skeletal confirmations include John F. Kennedy, victims of John Wayne Gacy, King Tutankhamun, victims of the Oklahoma City bombing, and Dr. Josef Mengele.
In 1968, Snow became the head of the department of Forensic Anthropology at Civil Aeromedical Institute. On 25 September 1978 Dr. Snow testified before the House Select Committee on Assassinations about various forensic aspects of the Kennedy assassination.
Since 1979, Snow turned his focus to forensics exclusively. He worked with various human rights groups and brought to attention mass graves of civilians in Argentina, and spent five years training many of the founding members of the Argentine Forensic Anthropology Team. The success of this mission led to the creation of Guatemalan Forensic Anthropology Team as well when survivors of the Guatemalan Civil War sought his help in 1991.
In 1997, Snow worked on mass graves found in the territory of the former Yugoslavia.
Snow died on 16 May 2014, aged 86, in Norman, Oklahoma.
