Portrait

Charlie Sheldon

Charlie Sheldon studied at Yale University and the University of

Massachusetts, where he received a Master's Degree in Wildlife

Biology and Resource Management. He then went to sea as a

commercial fisherman off New England, fishing for cod, haddock,

hake, lobster, red crab, squid, and swordfish. He spent 28 years

working for seaports (New York, Seattle, and Bellingham, WA) as

a project and construction manager and later as an executive,

including habitat cleanup projects and working with Puget Sound

Tribes to reduce tribal fishing conflicts. Later he returned to sea,

shipping out with the Sailor's Union of the Pacific as an Ordinary

Seaman, Able Bodied Seaman, and Bosun. His last gig was as

bosun aboard USNS Shughart, New Orleans to New York, in 2016.

Always a writer, he published Fat Chance with Felony and Mayhem

Press in 2005. He began working on ideas for Strong Heart, Adrift, and Totem, his tales

about the Olympic Mountains, the Pacific coast, and human

origins long, long ago and began serious research in 2010. These

days he hikes in the Olympics whenever he can, cooks for his wife,

and continues to write tales in Tacoma, Washington.
