Bob

Biography
Robert "Bob" Crowley (58)
Hometown: Portland, Maine
Occupation: Physics Teacher

Robert Crowley considers himself a hybrid of Indiana Jones and Robinson Crusoe. He loves the outdoors and is always ready for his next adventure.

Robert is a high school physics teacher in Gorham, Maine and holds both Associate and Bachelor degrees in forestry from the University of Maine - Orono and a Masters of Education degree from the University of Southern Maine. However, after the school bell rings, Robert becomes an entrepreneur. His wide range of jobs span from being a first mate on a research boat for the Smithsonian Institution in Canada to an entomologist for the USDA, to a skunk relocater, as well as President, Vice President and Chief Negotiator for his local Teacher's Union.

When not on an adventure, Robert interests include journal writing, story telling, photography, bone collecting, archeology and camping.

This tree climbing scientist, who describes himself as honest, adventurous, resourceful and witty, built his truly "green" summer cabin back when green was only referred to as the color. His "green" cabin was completely built with recycled material and requires a fraction of the energy of the average U.S. home. He's built numerous structures from recycled material including wharfs, saunas, a chicken house and a hunting cabin.

Robert strategy is to be a provider and to fly under the radar on SURVIVOR. He's out to prove that nice guys can make it to the end of the game.

Robert and his wife Peggy reside in Portland, Maine. They have two sons, David and John, one daughter, Page, and a high maintenance cat named William. Robert's birth date is February 25, 1951.

ROBERT ''BOB'' CROWLEY
AGE: 57
OCCUPATION: Physics teacher
HOMETOWN: South Portland, Maine
BOB SAYS: ''I'm a high school teacher. I enjoy younger people. I'm not part of their group, agewise, but emotionally I'm about 12.''
JEFF PROBST SAYS: ''He's the oldest guy out there. And unfortunately, that works against people all the time, even though there's probably nobody better equipped for this game. He's probably the guy who will be the biggest asset, if they don't get foolish and vote him out.''

Bob: "I am the cleverest Survivor out of here, very often I say I am not intelligent but I am wicked smart. I can figure stuff out, I can build a house out of nothing. I'm good at solving problems. Can I remember five words in a row or a telephone number? I can give you the first three numbers but I am sort of missing the rest but I am clever. I am feeling confident because I can be a likeable person. I think I can help the tribe live the good life while we are there. I am working on my strategy to be the last person standing and I think I got a good 1 in 18 chance of winning. I look around and I think I am the oldest one around here. I don't think I am a threat because of that. If I was a younger, stronger and athletic man or woman, I would be more nervous. I am in pretty good shape. I can climb, I can jump. I'm by no means not in my prime. I think being in this game, being in your prime puts you at risk. I think my prime without a doubt is my cleverness and my ability to deal with people. I can look at people and figure them out."

There's an interesting article in the Portland Press Herald this morning. There are quotes from some of Bob's colleagues and students, as well as a recent picture of him. He kept the beard, the first he has ever grown. Julie Berry was once one of his students. Maybe that's old news, but I hadn't heard it before.
