The native of Stoughton, Wisconsin, he grew up in his adoptive hometown of Savannah, Georgia. Life’s lessons began in lower middle-class housing where money for travel and holidays were the exception; thus his philosophy became "work in great destinations where others pay to play." Following his insatiable desire for excitement and danger expanded his philosophy to be "when there is a world crisis at hand, see it firsthand." Experience in war and travel to more than 70 countries had him living at both the top and bottom ends of the socio-economic scale, from palatial penthouses on Miami Beach to a sleeping bag on the desert floor. Chuck feels as though he has packed several lifetimes into one. His exploits during his first 60 years have been fun, yet dangerous at times. He feels equally blessed for all those times and the present, as he retreats into suburban life and the mundane.view less
