[[File:DanBollinger.jpg|thumb|Dan Bollinger , 2021]]'''Daniel H. Bollinger, III''' ({{LifeData |birth=1951-03-10 |birthplace=Plymouth, {{USSC|IN}}}}), [[intactivist]], has been involved in [[Intactivism ]] since 1995. He serves on [[Intact America]]’s Steering Committee board of directors as vice chair, and was a member if its founding committee. He was instrumental in the creation of Intact America's [http://intactamerica.org/our-strategy/ Tipping Point Strategy].
He was the Director of the [[International Coalition of for Genital Integrity]] (ICGI), which is now defunct.
Bollinger's involvement in [[intactivism ]] grew out his commitment to equal rights; he fought to help pass the Equal Rights Amendment in Indiana when he was in college. "[[Circumcision ]] was an issue I could relate to—not only because I was [[circumcised]], but because of the equal rights aspect. For most of my life I’ve been troubled by night terrors that I later became convinced were an early recollection of my [[circumcision ]] at age three-days."==Estimated cost of circumcision for Americans==Bollinger estimated the total cost of [[circumcision]] in 2012 for Americans, when all costs are included, to be $3.6 billion annually.<ref>{{REFweb |url=https://www.academia.edu/6442587/High_Cost_of_Circumcision_3.6_Billion_Annually |title=High Cost of Circumcision: $3.6 Billion Annually |last=Bollinger |first=Dan |author-link=Dan Bollinger |publisher=Academia |website=https://www.academia.edu |date=2012 |accessdate=2024-06-21 |format= |quote=As the saying goes, follow the money.
