Nick's interest in UFOs dates back to the late 1970s and stems from an incident that his father was involved in while serving on radar with the Royal Air Force in the 1950s. After leaving school in 1981, Nick joined a rock music and fashion magazine, Zero, and was trained in many areas of journalism, writing, magazine production and photography. He began writing on the UFO subject in a feelance capacity in the mid-1980s.

From 1984 until 2001, he worked as a freelance feature writer for the Daily Express, People, Western Daily Press and Express & Star newspapers, as well as a full-time feature writer for Planet on Sunday.

Between 1996 and 2000, Redfern signed a three-book publishing deal with Simon & Schuster of London for the publication of A Covert Agenda: The British Government’s UFO Top Secrets Exposed (1997), The FBI Files: The FBI’s UFO Top Secrets Exposed (1998) and Cosmic Crashes: The Incredible Story of the UFOs That Fell to Earth (2000). These books were serialized in the British Sunday newspaper, The People, and published in Canada, Russia, Poland, Australia, New Zealand and Portugal.

And, in March 2004, Paraview-Pocket Books, New York, published his book Three Men Seeking Monsters: Six Weeks in Pursuit of Werewolves, Lake Monsters, Giant Cats, Ghostly Devil Dogs, and Ape-Men. This book tells the story of his relationship with Jonathan Downes and Richard Freeman of the Centre for Fortean Zoology, and has been optioned by Universal Studios. Redfern has run the U.S branch of the CFZ since 2002.
