Arthur J. Collier was born in Victoria Britich Columbia, Canada, on December 31, 1944. He received the B.Sc. degree in physics from the University of Alberta, Edmonton Alberta in 1966 and the M.Sc. degree in physics (nuclear spectroscopy) from the University of Regina, Regina Saskatchewan, in 1969.

At this time, he joined Defence Research Establishment Atlantic (DREA) where he has been employed since, with the exception of a two-year exchange at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, DC, from 1982 to 1984. His major focus in research has been on the acoustic environment, naval sonars and sonobuoys, sonar signal processing, and torpedo defence. Over the 1990-1995 tenure of the Acoustic Countermeasures group at DREA, he was the group leader, and his current interest remains focused in this area.

Mr. Collier is a member of the Acoustical Society of America and the Canadian Acoustical Association.
