Dr. Paul Gallant received his Bachelor of Science from Brooklyn College, City University of New York, with a major in Chemistry. He then earned an M.A. in Chemistry from Brooklyn College. He received a Doctor of Optometry degree (O.D.) from the State University of New York, College of Optometry, in 1976.

Paul and Joanne met in 1994 and shortly thereafter, they began co-authoring newspaper and magazine articles on firearms policy. Among their early research was one of the first anonymous gun-owner surveys, designed to measure the true social and political attitudes of gun-owners.  Joanne and Paul became affiliated with the Independence Institute, Golden, CO, in 2000 where they are Senior Fellows. In recent years, Paul and Joanne have often co-authored articles with David B. Kopel, the Research Director of the Independence Institute, and more recently with Alan Chwick & Sherry Gallant.

The topics of their writing include biographical essays of persons such as First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, Civil War General Ambrose Burnside, and painter Leonardo da Vinci, as well as analyses of various social and political issues.

The leading topic of their research, however, is analysis of the social and political effects of firearms and of firearms laws around the world.
