An iconoclast known for his entry into most of the world's conflicts over the last twenty years, Pelton is considered an adventurer and a "witness" to conflict. 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 sole surviving witness to history-shaping events. His reputation is built on his interest and ability to enter forbidden, deadly and violent places and emerge with a stunning story.
