Life and works

Mattogno was born in Orvieto, Italy, now living with his family in a suburb of Rome. In his youth he carried out advanced linguistic studies in Latin, Greek and Hebrew.[1]

He is the author of numerous books and monographs,[2] several of which have been published in the Journal of Historical Review.

In 1985 Mattogno published the booklet The Gerstein Report – Anatomy of a Fraud[3] and in 1988 the book The Myth of the Extermination of the Jews. Since the 1990s Mattogno has largely focused his publications on the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp.

Mattogno is a former member of the advisory board of the Institute for Historical Review[2] and current editorial advisor for the journal printed by the Committee for Open Debate on the Holocaust,[4] bodies which promote Holocaust denial.[5] Mattogno also contributes to the French-language journal Annales d'histoire révisionniste[2] and the online and print journal, Inconvenient History.[6]

Mattogno came out in defense of bishop Richard Williamson of the Society of Saint Pius X during a much-publicized Holocaust history controversy.[7]
