Today, author Russell Heath stops by the Bunker to talk about his book Rinn’s Crossing.
But, here’s the thing. Russell is so much more than a writer. When he was seventeen, he moved to Alaska. He’s worked the Pipeline.
He’s circumnavigated the world in a twenty-five foot boat. He’s traveled the Earth…looking. So, Russell and Brad had a discussion about books and life and what it means to be A Human.
About Russell Heath
In his teens, Russell Heath hitchhiked to Alaska and lived in a cabin on the banks of the Tanana River; in his twenties, he lived in Italy and then traveled overland across the Sahara, through the jungles and over the savannas of Africa and into southern Asia.
In his thirties, he sailed alone around the world in a 25 foot wooden boat; in his forties, he wrote novels; and in his fifties he bicycled the spine of the Rockies from Alaska to Mexico.
He’s worked on the Alaska Pipeline, as an environmental lobbyist in the Alaska Legislature, and run a storied environmental organization fighting to protect Alaska’s coastal rain forests.
In 2010, wanting more frenzy in his life, he moved to New York City where he dug deep into leadership development and coaching. He now lives in a cabin on the coast of Maine coaching business and non-profit leaders intent on making big things happen in the world.
