Robert Young PeltonAuthor and filmmaker, Robert Young Pelton is known for overcoming extraordinary obstacles in his search for the truth.  He has made a career of bypassing the media, border guards and the military in his goal of getting to the heart of the story.  In his travels to and through the world/s most dangerous places, Pelton has shared risks with his hosts and often has become the sold surviving witness to history-shaping events.  His recent journeys have taken him inside the siege of Grozny in Chechnya, the battle of Qala-I-Jangi in Afghanistan, the rebel campaign to take Monrovia in Liberia, inside the hunt for Bin Laden in the Tribal Areas wit the CIA, with insurgents during the war in Iraq and running RPG Alley every day for four weeks with Blackwater in Baghdad.
