George Noory (born June 4, 1950) is the weekday host of the late-night radio talk show Coast-to-Coast AM. Noory was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, but now resides in Los Angeles, California.
Noory served nine years in the United States Navy. He has said that he became fascinated with ufology and the paranormal as a child.
Prior to hosting Coast-to-Coast AM, he hosted his own late-night radio program in St. Louis, Missouri where he was known as "The Nighthawk." The show, which, like Coast-to-Coast AM, also dealt with the paranormal, was carried by stations in five states.
Noory became a guest host for Coast-to-Coast AM before replacing Ian Punnett as the Sunday night host. On January 1, 2003, Noory took over the weeknight hosting duties from Art Bell, who had decided again to retire. (Bell has since returned to host host weekend Coast-to-Coast AM shows.)
Over the Christmas season in 2003, Noory reportedly time traveled to the past. He shared his supposed experiences on the air on January 5, 2004. He claimed to have tried to travel back to the Dark Ages and the Roswell UFO incident. He reported that the Roswell experiment was a success. Noory apparently viewed a UFO sighting at a hospital run by a convent outside of Roswell, New Mexico in the 1940s.
Noory has over 30 years of broadcasting experience and has won three Emmy awards.
