Doug Stanton Biography

Doug Stanton is the author of New York Times bestsellers "Horse Soldiers" and "In Harm's Way: The Sinking of the USS Indianapolis and the Extraordinary Story of Its Survivors." A former contributing editor at Esquire, Sports Afield, and Outside, Stanton is currently a contributing editor at Men's Journal and has written extensively on a broad range of topics including travel, entertainment, and adventure. His experiences during these times include nearly drowning in Cape Horn waters, surviving a mugging by jungle revolutionaries, playing basketball with George Clooney, and taking an acting lesson from Harrison Ford.

Stanton lives in his hometown of Traverse City, Michigan, where he is deeply involved in the local arts community as a member of the advisory board of the Interlochen Center for the Arts' Motion Picture Arts Program, and as a trustee of the Pathfinder School. These roles reflect his commitment to education and the arts, areas in which he has also contributed through teaching writing at the college level.

In addition to his writing and teaching, Stanton has diverse life experiences, including working as a commercial sports fisherman and caretaker of Robert Frost's house in Vermont. His academic background includes graduating from the Interlochen Arts Academy in Michigan and Hampshire College in Massachusetts, and he holds an MFA from the University of Iowa Writers' Workshop. Together with his wife, the investigative reporter Anne Stanton, he has three children.
