It turns out he was just homeless, hungry and broke; IOW, another sympathy worthy victim of Western racism and indifference. Hopefully this will motivate the French authorities to bring suitable charges against the true criminals in this case.

Exactly. Why were they there? Why did they attack this poor confused refugee? This is stragely reminiscent of that barbaric comedian that attacked the poor audience member as he charged him in emospastic vexation. This poor sand monkey was just trying to make a living, like all those loveable, law abiding Syrians that stormed the Macedonian border yesterday. WHERE IS THE JUSTICE?????????????????

The Paris-bound train passenger who wrestled an AK-47 away from a suspected terrorist only to be shot with the gunman’s back-up pistol is a French-American professor, his family said.
Mark Moogalian was shot in the back during the Friday attack on board a Paris-bound train. Four other heroes ultimately took down the gunman after Moogalain’s attempt — before one of them tended to the professor’s wounds, the Guardian reported.
Moogalian — who was born in Virginia but now lives in France and works as a professor at the University of Paris — will receive France’s top honor as soon as he is well enough.

Moogalian, 51, was traveling with his wife when he became suspicious of el-Khazzani, who slipped into a bathroom and stayed for a while, his wife, Isabelle, said in a statement to the British newspaper.
When el-Khazzani came out of the bathroom, he was carrying a weapon. Another train passenger tried to tackle the gunman while Moogalian snatched away the AK-47, his wife said.
But the hero professor didn’t realize the shooter had another weapon: el-Khazzani shot Moogalian in the back with a pistol as he tried to move away with the shooter’s rifle.
Isabelle watched the shooting from a few seats away, she said.
“I saw him through the gaps between the seats. He looked at me and said, ‘I’m hit, I’m hit.‘ He thought he was going to die,” she said.
As Moogalian lay bleeding on the train floor, the shooter took back his AK-47, the professor’s Virginia-based father told WRIC.
But seconds later, four other passengers rushed in to apprehend the gunman.
Stone, an off-duty U.S. Air Force member, said he put el-Khazzani in a chokehold while his childhood friends Sadler and Skarlatos punched and beat the struggling shooter. British passenger Norman joined the scrum, too.
As the four fought to restrain the attacker, el-Khazzani pulled out a box cutter and sliced Stone’s thumb.
“It seemed like he kept pulling more weapons left and right,” Stone said Monday.
When the group finally had el-Khazzani subdued, Stone ran to help the wounded Moogalian.
“He put his finger on the wound in the middle of his neck and he stayed in that position for the whole journey,” Isabelle said. “I think he really saved my husband’s life.”
Moogalian is still recovering at a local hospital, but his family said he is expected to make a full recovery.

All can `work as a` a professor if hired to do so. No academic record needed.

Even in that case he still would have a recent academic record.
In his case it is zilch...

I am searching in all languages at the same time.
That is, I use Google Scholar and input his name.
Anyway, as a born-American he would be expected to have at least some English links to him.
But I think I know the reason for the absence of an academic record. According to Dutch press he is an English teacher. So, he is not in the business to do research.
Now, there is one more mystery man mentioned in the Dutch press: a 29-year old French banker who was the first to confront the Islamist emerging from the toilet. It seems the English teacher came to his help, and took off the AK47, only to be shot by the gun.
This banker wants to stay anonymous, allegedly. He may be a security agent, or just someone scared for revenge attacks.

You were thinking too much like an academic. Colloquially professor means someone who teacher in a college or university not a tenured PhD who's published. Plus there have been plenty of inconsistencies in the reporting. The US servicemen went from soldiers to Marines to a National Guardsman and an Airman.
If the anonymous banker was a security agent, why not just say he was an security agent since he's remaining anonymous. Would having apparently unarmed undercover security on trains be controversial in France/the EU? When I read he wished to remain anonymous I figured he was probably afraid of retribution from Islamic terrorist or maybe he's just shy. In the US 99.9% of people would want their name in the news and the few who didn't would be outed by the media anyway. When I first moved to Japan when watching the news I was struck by how few people interviewed by reporters wanted their faces or even names broadcast.
Anyway, those American boys are in for some serious pussy.
Spencer Stone, one of three Sacramento men who stopped an alleged terrorist on a French train this summer, was stabbed Wednesday night multiple times. Chris Harvey of the Sacramento Fire Department confirmed Stone was taken to UC Davis Medical Center for multiple stab wounds to his torso, he is in serious condition.
President Francois Hollande has placed the whole of France under a state of emergency and has closed the country's borders.
