Charlot spent an extensive period of his life living and working in Mexico.  In 1949, Charlot went to teach at the University of Hawaii, where he stayed for over 30 years.
There, he developed a close friendship with the world-famous local artist Madge Tennant and collaborated with Juliette May Fraser, an accomplished muralist in her own right, on several major commissions in and around Honolulu.
During the summer of 1969, Charlot worked with Troy Smith at UH and Smith thanked him by creating a piece in the For... series named For J.C.
