Hella Hammid

1974

Photographer recruited by SRI in the 1970s as a supposedly non-psychic 'control' remote viewer — who then produced results Puthoff and Targ rated as consistently accurate across many trials. Cited by Targ as evidence that remote viewing is a broadly distributed human ability rather than a rare gift. (SRI-side account; the underlying psi claims are disputed by mainstream science.)
