Robert Allan Monroe[1] (October 30, 1915 – March 17, 1995) was an American radio broadcasting executive who became known for his ideas about altered states of consciousness and for founding The Monroe Institute which continues to promote those ideas. His 1971 book Journeys Out of the Body is credited with popularizing the term "out-of-body experience".

Monroe developed Hemi-Sync which he claimed could facilitate enhanced brain performance.[2][3][4][5][6]

He was one of the founders of the Jefferson Cable Corporation, the first cable company to cover central Virginia.[7]
