About Oliver North


Oliver North is a combat decorated U.S. Marine, #1 best-selling author, founder of a small business and holder of three U.S. patents. For seventeen years he was a syndicated columnist and host of “War Stories” on FOX News Channel. In May 2018, he retired from FOX News to serve as the 66th president of the National Rifle Association of America.  

North was born in San Antonio, Texas in 1943, graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy in 1968 and served twenty-two years as a U.S. Marine. His awards for service in combat include the Silver Star, the Bronze Star for valor, and two Purple Hearts for wounds in action.

From 1983-86 he served as Counter-Terrorism Coordinator on the National Security Council staff. He helped plan the rescue of U.S. students on Grenada, the liberation of American hostages, the capture of the Achille Lauro hijackers and the raids on Muammar Gadhafi’s terror bases; after which he was targeted for assassination by Abu Nidal’s Islamic Jihad. President Ronald Reagan described him as “an American hero.”

North has authored over twenty best-selling books and is co-founder of Freedom Alliance, an organization serving wounded U.S. military personnel and their families. He is widely acclaimed for award-winning FOX News coverage of more than sixty U.S. units in combat and his Freedom Alliance “Hero College Scholarships” for children of service members killed or permanently disabled in the line of duty. Yet, he says his greatest achievement is being, “the God-fearing husband of one, father of four, and grandfather of eighteen.”

LtCol North and his wife Betsy live in Virginia. In November 2022, they celebrated their 54th wedding anniversary. 

His newest book, The Giant Awakes, is now available at Amazon.com and OliverNorth.com



Speaking Engagements


Ollie was one of the best—if not THE best speaker we’ve had address our group. From the time he joined us for the reception to some four hours later, he made everyone feel like they were long-time friends. A great story teller and a very gracious man.
— Jane Bonvillain, Construction Industry Round Table
Colonel North exceeded my expectations. His performance was outstanding. The presentation was two months ago, and I still hear—almost on a daily basis—from sales people about his appearance. I am working on how I can get him back for a return visit!
— Training Director, Biogen
Through the years, we have arranged to work with many national leaders to speak at our events, but Oliver North ranked #1 with our clients at our November event! The response we have received was the best ever. We’ve already booked him for a second event.
— President, RIS Media Group
We were able to secure Col. Oliver North to come on Sept.11, 2015 for a fundraising Gala for the Bossier & Caddo Crime Stoppers in Bossier City & Shreveport, LA. With the significance of the Sept.11th attacks and the anniversary of those attacks, Col. North was the perfect choice. He delivered a powerful keynote address and we were able to raise more money for our organization than ever before. I would highly recommend Col. North for any fundraising effort you are embarking upon, he will not disappoint!

Your passionate speech in support of our troops, which you gave at the Distinguished Lecturer Series, is still the talk of Vero Beach! So many people have called or come up to one of us on the committee to say how much they enjoyed your lecture.
