'''Mark T. Hooker''' is a visiting scholar at Indiana University's Russian and East European Institute (REEI). Retired, he conducts research for publication.

He is a member of the Board of Academic Advisors for [[Walking Tree Publishers]].<ref>{{webcite|author=|articleurl=http://www.walking-tree.org/board_of_advisors.php|articlename=Walking Tree Publishers Board of Advisors|dated=|website=[http://www.walking-tree.org/ Walking Tree Publihers]|accessed=21 January 2012}}</ref>

Hooker is credited with coining the term ''[[Tolkiennymy]]'' (to describe the study of Tolkien's use of names and etymologies from existing languages) and borrowing the Russian word ''[[Samizdat]]'' (to describe self-published "pirate" translations).
