Charroux, originally employed by the French post office, turned full-time to writing in the 1940s. For example, he wrote the lyrics for the French comic series Atomas , which appeared in the weekly Mon Journal in the late 1940s .

Charroux is considered a pioneer in the field of pre-astronautics. In a number of non-fiction books he dealt with the question of whether and when the earth had already been visited by aliens.
