Eric Lyman

Eric J. Lyman (born 1965) is an American journalist, writer and ghost writer.

Lyman graduated from Florida State University. He has written on topics from South America, including the thesis that the border conflict between Peru and Ecuador could be based on pre-Columbian Inca roots, and was the first to break the story that the U.S. government was guilty of using illegal poison to eradicate coca crops in the Amazon jungle, contributing to a reversal of U.S. policy in this area.

His work has been published in periodicals including the San Francisco Chronicle,[1] National Geographic News,[2] Reason Magazine,[3] USA Today,[4] "The Hollywood Reporter", UPI[5] and the Wall Street Journal.[6] He is also an editor and columnist for The American, a monthly magazine published in Rome.[7]
