Daris R. Swindler (13 August 1925 – 6 December 2007) was a professor of anthropology, a forensic anthropologist, and a primate anatomy expert who taught for more than thirty years at the University of Washington. He was one of the world’s foremost authorities on living and fossil primate teeth. His authored texts were considered to be standard references.
Although cited for many years as a skeptic regarding the existence of an undocumented bipedal American ape, Swindler remained open to the possibility and was numbered among the few acknowledged experts willing to examine purported evidence.
Swindler was one of the scientists who assessed the Skookum Cast, collected during a September 2000 BFRO expedition in Skamania County, WA. In his opinion, the cast represented a genuine record of a giant hairy bipedal primate.
