Timmerman, John P.  (b. 1923). As a Lima. Ohio businessman. Timmerman became associated with astronomer J. Allen Hynek in 1979 and provided major funding for the operation of the Center for UFO Studies (CUFOS) for many years. Timmerman graduated from Cornell University in 1950, at which time he became interested in investigating UFO sighting reports.
 In 1980 Timmerman became Chairman and Treasurer of the Center and created the traveling UFO Photo Exhibit Research Project, which began appearing in shopping centers, universities, and at conferences throughout the United States and Canada. In May 1980 he created the CUFOS Associate Newsletter and served as its editor and publisher until it was discontinued in July 1985.
 When CUFOS moved from a public office located in Evanston in 1981, Timmerman assumed much of the business operation responsibility for Dr. Hynek and opened a public access office with paid staff in Lima. Ohio, where he produced the International UFO Reporter edited by Dr. Hynek from January 1982 until the Lima office was combined with a new facility near Chicago, which was opened when Dr. and Mrs. Hynek moved from Evanston, Illinois, to Scottsdale, Arizona in 1985.

Top Secret/Majic  (Marlowe, 1996). Stanton Friedman tries to make a case that the Majestic-12 documents are authentic and reveal a secret government cabal controlling public knowledge about UFO crashes and the retrieval of alien bodies. He expands upon his earlier contentions that ˆ¨the wreckage of at least two very advanced flying saucers in New Mexico in 1947ˆÆ resulted in a back-engineering program which developed the transister and other technological breakthroughs.
