Fred Demara was an American con man and serial imposter. But how did he get here?
He grew up during the Great Depression and fled his financially troubled home at the age of 16 to become a monk. Shortly after, the cons began. From a stint in the military, to teaching as a college professor, to pretending to be a surgeon - Fred truly was the Great Imposter!
