Readers have been raving about the pieces that Val Ross has been writing for us lately, so we thought it would be fun to have a conversation with her for our latest podcast episode. Wow, we were not disappointed as Val goes into some really striking moments from her life as a Scientologist.
I’m awe struck. Thank you so much Valerie. Maybe that’s where I remember your name from, I was at AOLA back then.
Ann Snider worked as a non-sea-org in our special CYC Unit along with Steve Miller, Ian Anderson, Susan Sullamon? … wish I had a list of all those folks because I keep seeing names I think from back then.
Anyway it wasn’t until just 10 years ago I learned of Ann Sniders double life.
I am looking forward to some of us from the birth of PAC doing a history channel similar to what Mark and Janice are doing.
It’s very healing and we do need to let our later generations know the truth.
Well you are an example of that saying what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger 🥰
Looking forward to the next story.
And thank you Tony. You really ask the right questions.
Val, I think that I was living across the hall from you during that period in the late 70s in the Manor. If I remember correctly, I was on the third floor. We talked a little and you told me that you couldn’t discuss it with me because it was GO stuff.
My name is Gail HILL, and at the time I was married to Don HILL. Don and I ran a mission in Omaha Nebraska. I was on public lines, doing my OT sections at the time. I was staying in the Manor with my son, MIKE, who was about eight years old at the time, attending Apple school. Please let me know if I am correct.
Not to take away from Val and sll she's fone, but that attorney is a great example of someone outside Scientology being the exact opposite of what Sci says the evil wogs are like. The stories with those tyoes of people in them always seem to include how it was easier for the ex-Sci to find reasons to stay out and not believe the lies. Kudos to that attorney for using his resources and means to give Val a new life!
Valerie Ross gives a wonderful talk on her life in and out of the Clampire. Write on or talk on Val, your stories are very illuminating.

My name changed when I remarried in 2006
What was your prior name? Your X was Mark and has a sister in? I’m a bit mixed up on that. Did you and your children have to disconnect?
Or am I too nosy 🧐?
Thank you for sharing her story! Wow!
