	Donald Foster discredits himself by with a series of high profile mistakes.
		Foster's folly was the result of his appetite for fame as a literary gumshoe, whetted by publicity he received for other supposed successes in 1995 and 1996.
		Foster's fallibility may have been a surprise to the general public, who had been hearing extravagant praise of Foster since 1996 for his supposed triumphs in unmasking the author of Primary Colors and identifying Theodore Kaczynski as author of the Unabomber Manifesto.
		Foster said she altered the way she wrote her letter "a" after the murder so that it did not resemble the handwriting in the note.

		Donald Foster: Use of language, grammer, source material, borrowings, political and religious opinions and anything that might enter into making a piece of writing distinctively one person's or anothers - from punctuation to spelling and so on.
		Donald Foster: My experience with the Boulder detectives was that they were entirely professional in their work - they were dedicated to the case.

	CNN.com - Books - Don Foster enlightens readers with 'Author Unknown' - December 6, 2000
		By the time Foster was finished comparing Shakespeare works with the words and phrases of the elegy, along with digging up connections between the two, he had determined that Shakespeare was the author.
		Foster set about analyzing the writing in "Primary Colors" and comparing it to the writings of top "suspects" in the case: various political writers, many of whom had worked closely with President Clinton, the real-life inspiration for "Primary Colors" candidate Jack Stanton.
		Foster also deals with his favorite subject -- Shakespeare -- from another angle: those who believe Shakespeare didn't actually write the works that bear his name, that they were penned by the Earl of Oxford, Christopher Marlowe, or even Queen Elizabeth I. For the record, Foster has investigated and come to a conclusion.

	Hatfill-v-Foster lawsuit
		Defendant Foster contrasts Dr. Hatfill’s role in the anthrax case explicitly with the role of Richard Jewell in the Olympic Park bombing at the Atlanta Olympics in 1996.
		Defendant Foster’s performance in the Ramsey investigation has significant points in common with his role in the anthrax investigation; indeed, the timelines of Foster’s involvement in the two cases are strikingly similar.
		Defendants Foster and RDA published the false and defamatory statements identified above (a) with actual knowledge that they were false, or without reasonable grounds for believing them to be true; (b) without the exercise of due care to ascertain the true facts; and/or (c) in reckless disregard of whether the statements were true or false.

	Foster Page
		Donald Foster is a Vassar Professor, well known for his ability to match authors to their texts.
		Donald Foster was asked to identify "Anonymous"; he was given the name of a handful of "suspects", he was not looking at the text and "profiling" the author, looking for a needle in a haystack, he was matching writing styles of certain "suspects" to a BOOK of text.
		But Foster, as it turned out, had badly compromised himself as an expert witness when, early in the case, he had spontaneously written to Patsy to tell her that his initial opinion was that she was innocent.

	background
		Foster guessed that these data spikes were due to the older play's returning to the repertory of Shakespeare's theater company while the new play was being written.
		Despite Foster's advice, "such matters as editorial consistency in the copytexts, generic and chronological controls, and normalization of the data were shrugged off, year after year, as inconvenient," Foster would later write.
		Foster may have also brought about Kaczynski's worst nightmare: If literature is a sacred haven, then Foster has invited the serpent of number-crunching technology inside to sample its choicest fruit--to chew through Shakespeare's words as if they were so many numbers.

	Author Unknown - Don Foster
		Donald Foster is the Vassar professor who, through literary detective-work, unmasked Joe Klein as "Anonymous", the author of the bestselling novel about Bill Clinton, Primary Colors.
		Foster's story as he builds his reputation with Shakespeare and Anonymous is an interesting one, and fun to follow.
		Foster does explain who could -- and who couldn't -- have written the controversial three pages (or rather: who probably wrote what pages), but it is a somewhat muddled account of what is in any case a very muddy affair, making for less than riveting reading.

	Ward Elliott and Robert Valenza / Debate with Donald Foster
		Foster claims it was really nine percent (111 instead of 120), not nine-tenths of a percent, as we claimed (his 1998/99, note 11).
		Foster’s answer, we take it, would be yes, that he and the “Shakespeare scholarly consensus” ascribe 3H6 solidly and entirely to Shakespeare, and that the play’s three whenas equivalents, together with five more in other canonical plays, show that whenas’s are not nearly as rare in Shakespeare as we make them out to be.
		Foster’s Shaxicon, which was supposed to have clinched his case for Shakespeare ascription by showing matching “spikes” of rare word usage in the Elegy (his 1996) did not really do so because Foster never showed it to be immune from false positives (our 1997, pp.

	Online NewsHour: Shakespeare -- January 15, 1996
		DONALD FOSTER, Vassar College: (New York) Well, the two copies have survived of this poem, both of them at Oxford.
		FOSTER: Well, for six years, I studied the problem quite closely and looked at evidence for and against Shakespeare's hand in the poem and finally concluded that there just wasn't enough evidence here to go on board and say I think Shakespeare wrote this poem.
		FOSTER: Well, this is just one part, actually, of a much wider web of evidence that includes connections between Shakespeare and this young man and a good deal of rare vocabulary one doesn't ordinarily find outside Shakespearean texts and grammatical quirks and so forth.
