Jeff Bolton

Producer Author Leader

Jeff’s remarkable life reads better than any Hollywood script.

Jeff has influenced millions of people around the world throughout his vivid and prolific career as a documentary film producer, radio talk show host, television personality, and feature writer. His award-winning body of work spans more than 30 years and continues to grow.

He is currently executive producing the historic documentary television series THE WATCH: America’s Nuclear Mission Revealed, an extraordinary, never-before-seen look at the men and women behind America’s more than seventy-year global nuclear deterrence mission. The project is in production with the full cooperation of the Department of Defense. His groundbreaking television documentary AMERICA’S MARINE AVIATORS is currently featured on Amazon PRIME Video.

Jeff has been featured on national broadcast networks including ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX, MSNBC, and CNBC. He has also been heard coast to coast on iHeartRadio, Cumulus Media, and Salem Communications, and read in print and online in Popular Mechanics, Combat Aircraft Journal, Defense News, and Autoweek Magazine.

He has flown more than forty U.S. military aircraft, both current and vintage, around the world in war and peace while embedded with American pilots and aircrew. Jeff is the first and only person in the world, civilian or military, to both fly and film aboard all three U.S. military heavy bombers: the B-1B “Lancer”, B-2A “Spirit” stealth bomber, and B-52H “Stratofortress”. He has completed multiple aircraft carrier catapult launches and arrested landings at sea with the U.S. Marine Corps in the F/A-18D “Hornet”. He has also flown the F-16D “Viper”, TAV-8B “Harrier II”, F-5F “Franken-Tiger”, and AH-1W “Cobra”.

After more than 20 years of feature writing, while embedded with U.S. military units, Jeff entered the world of military fiction, writing his debut novel titled West Point. Set at the U.S. Military Academy, the action-packed hi-tech thriller takes place in the rapidly approaching future when military Artificial Intelligence becomes a reality in America and the world. Advance readers–including current and retired senior military and intelligence officers–have called it “stunning,” “extraordinary,” and “visionary.” The novel is already being compared to Tom Clancy’s Hunt for Red October.

Jeff and his family support several non-profits devoted to America’s military members and their families.
