Lamar Waldron

In 2012, Counterpoint published Waldron's Watergate: The Hidden History: Nixon, The Mafia, and The CIA. The book states the "driving force" responsible for the Central Intelligence Agency—Mafia assassination attempts on Fidel Castro in 1959-1960 was Richard Nixon, then Vice President of the United States. According to Waldron, Nixon launched the Watergate break-ins to find a dossier that could expose the assassination plots. According to Publishers Weekly: "One vast conspiracy begets another in this meticulous but unconvincing theory of the Watergate scandal."

Waldron partnered with radio talk show host Thom Hartmann to produce the 2005 book Ultimate Sacrifice: John and Robert Kennedy, the Plan for a Coup in Cuba, and the Murder of JFK. The research for the book extended over a 20-year period.

Waldron kept the partnership with Hartmann and extended their 2005 work in a new volume using many sources which had recently been declassified. This 2008 book (2009 trade paperback even more extensive), Legacy of Secrecy: The Long Shadow of the JFK Assassination, is currently being made into a movie by Warner Brothers, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, slated for release in the near future. In a review for Vanity Fair, Rob Sheffield wrote: "The book gets infinitely more chaotic when it moves on to the Robert F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. assassinations, trying to make all the pieces fit together into a theory of everything. You really have to use the index and jump around from chapter to chapter to follow the plot, checking the 2,000 end notes along the way." The Hidden History of the JFK Assassination, an updated and abridged version of Legacy of Secrecy, was published in 2013 by Counterpoint.

Throughout the 1980s and a good portion of the 1990s, Waldron wrote stories in the comics field, for such publishers as Fictioneer Books, Disney, and Dark Horse Comics. In 1983 Starblaze Graphics published Lightrunner, an "epic science fiction adventure" written by Waldron and illustrated by Rod Whigham. Waldron was the writer of the Fictioneer series M.I.C.R.A.: Mind Controlled Remote Automaton, which ran 7 issues from 1986–1988.

Waldron was co-founder and long-time organizer of the Atlanta Fantasy Fair, an annual trade show devoted to comic books and science fiction/fantasy fandom, from 1975–1987. During this period he edited and published Visions, the official program booklet of the AFF, which also contained original interviews and comics.
