Keynote Speaker
Steven W. Mosher
"Building a Culture of Life"
Steven W. Mosher is the President of the Population Research Institute and an internationally recognized
authority on China and population issues. He has worked tirelessly since 1979 to fight coercive population
control programs and has helped hundreds of thousands of women and families worldwide over the years.
In 1979, Steven was the first American social scientist to visit mainland China. He was invited there by the
Chinese government, where he had access to government documents and actually witnessed women being
forced to have abortions under the new “one-child policy.” Mr. Mosher was a pro-choice atheist at the time,
but witnessing these traumatic abortions led him to reconsider his convictions and to eventually become a
practicing, pro-life Roman Catholic.
Steven has appeared numerous times before Congress as an expert in world population, China, and human
rights abuses. He has also made TV appearances on Fox News, EWTN and Newsmax, as well as being a
regular guest on talk radio shows and podcasts across the nation.
He is the author of the best-selling A Mother’s Ordeal: One Woman’s Fight Against China’s One-Child
Policy (1994). His other books include The Devil and Communist China (2024), The Politically Incorrect
Guide to Pandemics (2022), Bully of Asia: Why China’s Dream is the New Threat to World Order (2018,
2021); Population Control: Real Costs and Illusory Benefits (2008), Hegemon: China’s Plan to Dominate
Asia and the World (2000), China Attacks (2001), China Misperceived: American Illusions and Chinese
Reality (1990), Journey to the Forbidden China (1986), and Broken Earth: The Rural Chinese (1983).
