Where service meets storytelling.

Bud Hunton is an accomplished author, educator, and medical professional whose distinguished career spans service in the U.S. Navy, healthcare administration, and higher education. His writing career began shortly after his retirement from the Navy in 1975, following an extensive tenure as a Navy Hospital Corpsman and Physician’s Assistant. During his military service, he practiced medicine aboard naval vessels and at shore-based hospitals, where he also served as a Radiographer (X-Ray Technologist) and department manager.

After completing his military service, Mr. Hunton transitioned to civilian healthcare, holding directorial positions in hospitals across Cincinnati and Dayton, Ohio. While serving as a department director at Grandview Hospital in Dayton, he began contributing a monthly column to Advance Magazine (Valley Forge, PA), writing on professional topics he also presented at national conferences and conventions.

His expertise and dedication to medical education led to his recruitment by Sinclair Community College, where he served as an instructor for twenty-two years. During his tenure, he taught Basic and Advanced Medical Terminology as well as Introduction to Computers, influencing countless students entering the allied health professions. Recognizing his subject matter expertise, McGraw Hill Publishers invited him to collaborate on editing and authoring several medical textbooks, including Basic Medical Terminology, which has been used as a course text at Sinclair College.

As of August 2025, Mr. Hunton has authored eighteen non-fiction books, each reflecting his commitment to clarity, accuracy, and the advancement of knowledge in his fields of study. His publications continue to serve as valuable resources for students, professionals, and readers with a passion for lifelong learning.
