Chuck Hansen

Chuck Hansen is an award-winning writer and humorist. In addition to his books, Chuck’s writing has appeared in publications in Virginia and across the country. Chuck also speaks frequently, bringing his unique, thoughtful humor to corporate and association conferences and community group meetings.

Before finding his direction in life, Chuck drifted through many jobs, from copier salesman and stand-up comic to blackjack dealer and private detective. At 25, Chuck drifted to St. Thomas on a one-way plane ticket, where he came of age through a series of adventures, starting as a bouncer in a rough-and-tumble working-sailors' bar and ending up as crew on a 51-foot sloop sailing across the North Atlantic.

On that Atlantic crossing, Chuck took the helm in his life and began charting a new course. He earned a masters degree in communications and professional accreditation, served as press secretary for Congresswoman Susan Molinari, speechwriter for a Virginia governor, communications director for a Virginia secretary of transportation, director of Virginia's Adopt-a-Highway program, and as an executive speechwriter and communications professional with four Fortune 500 companies.

Chuck and his wife Stacy have two adult children (Daniel and Madison) and live in beautiful Midlothian, Virginia.
