Alan Abel is an American prankster, hoaxter, writer, mockumentary filmmaker, and jazz percussionist famous for several hoaxes that became media circuses. Abel graduated from Ohio State University with a B.S. in Education. One of Abel's earliest pranks took place in the late 1950s.

The hoax began as a satire of media censorship but took on a life of its own with sympathizers offering unsolicited contributions, citizen summonses for walking naked dogs
