Multiple-award-winning, and best-selling author Baer Charlton is a Social-Anthropologist by degree. But his many interests have led him around the world in search of the unique.

During his travels as an internationally recognized Photojournalist, he saw many incredible sights. He explored the natural habitat of the mountain gorillas in Rwanda, stood as a podium for a Barbary Ape on the Rock of Gibraltar and even kissed a kangaroo in Australia. Maybe he was just monkeying around, or maybe these experiences will stay with him forever.

His passion for sailing has driven him to submit assignments from various countries and even from the middle of the Atlantic Ocean on a five-mast sailing ship. Baer has spoken on five continents, plus lecturing at sea.

He has driven vehicles from two wheels to eighteen. His love for sailing and skin diving has taken him around the world. His crossing of mountain passes has been in sunshine and snow.

Raised in the mountains and deserts of California, he experienced the heat of Death Valley and died one night from hypothermia. Doctors and nurses have saved him and stitched him back together more times than a professional hockey team.

Within every person, there is a story. But inside that story is an even more memorable story. Those are the stories he likes to tell.

There is no more complex and wonderful story than those coming from the human experience. Mr. Charlton’s stories are all driven by the characters you come to think of as friends or family.
