Robert W. Coggin grew up in a small mill village in rural Georgia, where daily life revolved around farm work and hard labor. After enlisting in the U.S. Air Force, he received training in classified communications that opened the door to a career in aviation.

Coggin joined Delta Air Lines in 1956 as a ramp worker, one of the entry-level positions on the airport tarmac. Over the next four decades, he worked his way up through the company, eventually retiring in 1998 as one of Delta’s top four executives. His 2018 memoir, Flying High Over the Cotton Field, tells that story from cotton fields to corporate offices. Coggin wrote the book in part to encourage young people to believe that determination and a strong work ethic can carry them further than they might expect.
