Robert Wintner is an American author and founder of Snorkel Bob's shops throughout Hawaii.[1][2]

Wintner's fiction tends to be led by characters seeking reason in nature.[1] Two of his novels were optioned for movie production in Los Angeles (The Modern Outlaws and Whirlaway).[3] Whirlaway was a Maui County hot book listing for 15 years. His short story collection, Wintner's Reserve, was chosen for a Book 'n a Beach Chair of the Month Main Selection.[verification needed]

Snorkel Bob's Reality Guide to Hawaii is non-fiction and written in the same voice as all Snorkel Bob productions, with guidance on snorkel sites, beaches, reefs, hazards et al., and other tourist info.

Wintner has focused on his career as an environmental and animal rights activist, primarily against the saltwater aquarium trade.[1]
