Historical or Biographical Note
Hal Roth worked as a freelance writer and photographer. He married Margaret Hale-White (Roth) and the two learned to sail.
He combined his talents and wrote many books based on his individual experiences racing and their combined sailing adventures.
He passed away in 2008 after writing hundreds of articles and 13 books.
Hal Roth was born in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1927. He was an aviator during World War II and the Korean War. During the course
of his lifetime, Roth was also an author, sailor, mountaineer, and photographer. He graduated from the University of California,
Berkeley with a degree in Journalism, and became a freelance writer and photographer. He studied photography with Edward Weston
and Ansel Adams. He worked as a photographer for the American Society of Magazine Photographers based in Sausalito, California
and took countless images of life in the surrounding area of California during the late 1950s and into the late 1960s. Roth's
freelance works of note include magazine titles such as Colliers, Fortune, The Saturday Evening Post, and The New York Times.
Themes of his work include: California landscapes and wildlife, San Francisco (including Fisherman's Wharf), Winter Olympics,
Dr. Suess, and Native American wildland firefighters of the Southwest.
Hal was also engaged in photographic study of human life as represented by his "Time and Place" album and his Chinatown exhibit.
In 1964, the San Francisco Museum of Art exhibited 40 of Roth's black and white photographic images titled "The Faces of Chinatown."
Roth's first published book, "Pathway in the Sky" (1965) displays his passion for the John Muir Trail and the Sierra Mountains.
The associated images of the John Muir Trail also reflect people enjoying the trail and document its use in the early 1960s.
In 1959, Roth met Margaret Hale-White from Oxford, England who was visiting a friend in San Francisco, California. Margaret
was born in Bombay, India and was the daughter of an English engineer. According to Roth, she worked in Paris for six and
a half years as a dual language secretary for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). Sharing backgrounds in mountaineering
and hiking and a love for adventure, they married in 1960.
Even though neither was a sailor, their friends shared a love of sailing and introduced them to the sport in 1962. The couple
chartered a boat in the West Indies where they learned a great deal from the captain. Later, they chartered another boat in
Greece, then took sailing lessons in Scotland. After purchasing a home in Sausalito in 1964, they took a trip (1966) north
along the west coast and purchased a fiberglass Spencer 35, built in Vancouver, British Columbia and designed by John Brandlmayr
in Seattle, Washington. They named her WHISPER, and sailed her home to California. The Roths began sailing on their own in
1966 and completed several voyages in WHISPER. Destinations included Japan, Aleutian Islands, Alaska, Canadian islands, Ecuador,
Peru, Chile, Cape Horn, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Mediterranean, and Canary Islands. In 1978, they relocated to Maine.
Roth published hundreds of articles in his lifetime. Although, his book publications appear to be his dominate body of work
and document the couple's voyages and growing knowledge of sailing. The 1972 account of their first circumnavigation of the
Pacific Basin (1967-8) resulted in the publication "Two on a Big Ocean." The Blue Water Medal of the Cruising Club of America
was awarded to the Hal Roth, and Margaret was noted as the sole crew, for this voyage. "After 50,000 Miles" (1977) describes
technical aspects of sailing. The 1978 book "Two against Cape Horn" describes their journey from California to Maine via Cape
Horn. "Always a Distant Anchorage" (1988) describes their four year (1981-1985) circumnavigation west through the Panama Canal,
Torres Strait, the Red Sea, and the Suez Canal. "Always a Distant Anchorage" (1988) was the resulting book.
The couple sold WHISPER and purchased the AMERICAN FLAG and Roth then sailed solo in the Brin's or British Oxygen Company
(BOC) Challenge Race of 1986-7. He completed the race 4th in his class, taking 171 days. "Chasing the Long Rainbow" (1990)
is his account of this BOC race. In 1990, he tried the race again in the same Santa Cruz 50 and renamed it SEBAGO (his sponser),
but due to capsizing, the voyage took 211 days. "Chasing the Wind" (1994) is his account of the second race. In 1992, they
sold the SEBAGO, purchased a Pretorien 35, named her WHISPER, and spent two years together tracing Odysseus' voyage through
the Mediterranean. "We Followed Odysseus", "How to Sail Around the World", and "Handling Storms at Sea" represent books that
he wrote based on the couple's final unique voyages.
Roth recorded reminisces and continued to draft manuscripts throughout his life. His last two works, "The Paradise Book" and
"Graf Spee" were completed but never published. He worked on these during his later years and during his two and half year
battle with lung cancer. He passed away October 18, 2008 while living in Maryland with his wife, Margaret, who survives him.

correspondence, vessel logbooks, maps, photographic images, audio-visual films, books, manuscripts, and articles pertaining
to American sailor, author, and photographer Hal Roth (1927-2008) and his wife Margaret Roth. The materials have been processed
to the file unit level and are open for use.
This collection reflects Roth's personal artistic endeavors, sailing trips, technical sailing information, and records various
cultures around the world. After studying with Ansel Adams and Edward Weston, Roth became a freelance writer and photographer
and was well adept at documenting his adventures and the world around him. Diaries, maps, films, articles, manuscripts, and
publications record his sailing adventures both solo and with his wife, Margaret. Documented destinations include: Aleutian
Islands, Pacific and, northeastern Atlantic coast of the U.S., Panama, the Mediterranean area, Polynesia, Japan, Greece, Turkey,
Chili, Brazil, and Newfoundland.
A significant portion of the non-sailing documents document the entire John Muir Trail and aspects of Yosemite National Park
in the late 1950s and early 1960s and capture his love for mountaineering and hiking. Other themes of particular interest
include San Francisco and New York Chinatowns, East Bay, Richmond Ferry, Point Reyes, the west coast and the Cascades, Nevada,
Maine, Native American wildland firefighters, living at sea, and various national park units such as Mesa Verde, Yellowstone,
Death Valley, and possibly Great Basin.
