Charles J. Crable IV was born and raised in Ohio, from a divorced family, then moved to California with his mother and brother. He played drums in scholastic bands and found himself on the Hollywood Bowl stage in front of 18,000 people with his own band.
Charles graduated as Senior Class President and Red Cross Student Representative from LA High. He later graduated from USC, and raised a family in Southern California.
His daughter is a PhD psychologist, and his son is a scuba diver. Charles and his son are estranged due to many of the things he's discussed on his radio show, the Crable Table. Charles wrote a 380 book on the subject, and was a paid speaker for NASA's Pre Service Teachers Institute, Requiem for Ordinary Black Men. He wrote and will continue to speak on those issues.
As a real estate broker with his own firm, Charles bought a 110 acre farm in central New York directly on the Underground Railroad. He hopes to develop the barns as an educational retreat. He was anticipating a solar farm contract that was under development on the property, but was then reversed by powerful anti-alternative energy political actors in the region. Consequently, he's back to work in various sales positions.
