Bill Sherck

by HOAC

Creative writing meets the natural world in Bill Sherck’s stories. Television viewers know Bill as “The Man about the Woods.” Sherck hosts and reports as part of Ron Schara Enterprises, Minneapolis-based producers of several Emmy award-winning outdoor programs.

Bill got his television start along Lake Superior’s Wilderness North Shore reporting local news. During the next 10 years, he worked his way around the country, eventually landing jobs as a reporter for both Fox News in North Carolina and the main ABC affiliate back in Minneapolis. Bill earned dozens of journalism awards for his unique style of storytelling, including Edward R. Murrow and Emmy Awards. Now, his outdoor stories reach viewers on the Versus Network programs, “Backroads” and “Pheasants Forever Television.” He also reports weekly as part of the award-winning series, “Minnesota Bound.” Bill tackles a big project this year, hosting the Midwest’s newest outdoor program, “Due North” to be seen on Fox Sports Network.

Bill spends a good chunk of the year on the road traveling and reporting. Even so, his favorite fishin’ hole remains a quiet, pasture stream in Southeast Minnesota or a soft seat in his red walleye boat.
