Member Biography
Colonel Chuck Lehman
Chuck was born and raised in Minnesota
where his first writing job was an outdoors column for a local newspaper while
he was still in high school. He earned a
degree in physics and a master’s degree in human resources. After a career as an Air Force fighter pilot
and commander he wrote a couple dozen articles for major outdoor
magazines. His first two books were
non-fiction. They taught survival by
using real-life stories as examples. He
followed them with ANGELS THREE SIX, a collection of about thirty
from-the-cockpit stories from his adventures in supersonic fighter jets. Chuck’s first novel was THE BIG WOODS, based
on the incredible true story of a soldier in the Indian and Civil Wars. Next came ASHER, the story of a first century
Roman soldier in King Herod’s Guard who was sent to Bethlehem in the middle of
the night to assassinate all the baby boys.
The novel follows Asher for thirty-three years as he is tormented by his
action and pursued by vengeful residents of Bethlehem.
Two more novels are in the works.
First is a biblical story based on the New Testament Lazarus, scheduled
for release in early 2012. Next is a
book about two fighter pilots during the Cuban Crisis. One is tasked with a horrific mission that
would take the life of his best friend.
It should be out in late 2012.
Chuck is married to his soul-mate, Marian
(his editor) they have three grown children and nine grandchildren. They live near Spokane Washington.
