Charles Frazier, award-winning author, was born in Asheville, North Carolina, in 1950. Frazier received his BA degree from the University of NC, Chapel Hill, in 1973, and went on to study at Appalachian State University, where he met his future wife Katherine, whom he married in 1976. His first published book was a travel guide for the Sierra Club called Adventuring in the Andes, published in the year after his daughter Annie was born (1985). The following year he completed his Ph.D. at the University of South Carolina, in American literature. After a teaching stint at the University of Colorado, Boulder, he returned to North Carolina, where both he and Katherine taught at North Carolina State University.
