Charles Luckmann

Charles “Chuck” Luckmann grew up along the Mississippi River in Illinois, Missouri, and Minnesota. He purchased his first canoe for $75 at eleven years of age, which launched a passion for rivers that has never waned. During a forty-five-year career in education, he taught at nine schools in four countries, including COBWS from 1979–1982, where he spent summers at Homeplace and winters in the Toronto office. From 1992 to 1997, he was executive editor for the Journal of Experiential Education. In 2004 he cofounded Flying Trout Press. He lives in Bellingham, Washington, with his wife and son and tens of thousands of honeybees.
