Fisher Neal
Fisher Neal grew up in Knoxville, TN with a passion for hunting, fishing, and anything else outdoors. After discovering a new passion for acting in high school, he started down an unusual dual path. One as a professional actor, which took him through the vaunted graduate acting program at Yale, to performances on Broadway, TV, and the Met Opera. Another as an outfitter. To earn a living between acting jobs, he created Learn to Hunt NYC, mentoring and guiding beginners on deer, turkey, and wild mushroom hunts. His writing can be found in Gray's Sporting Journal, Backcountry Journal, Guidefitter Journal, and Paleo Magazine.
