A Reality TV Icon and Entrepreneur
Born and raised in Louisiana, Phil Robertson launched Duck Commander in 1972, pioneering the now-famous duck call that helped build a multi-million-dollar hunting empire.
The success of the business led to Duck Dynasty, which premiered on A&E in 2012 and ran for 11 seasons until its conclusion in 2017.
The series became a cultural phenomenon, spotlighting the lives of Phil, his wife Kay, and their extended family as they worked together at the family-run business.
Its blend of humor, faith, and outdoorsmanship attracted millions of viewers each week and led to several successful spinoffs, including Jep & Jessica: Growing the Dynasty and Duck Family Treasure.
Earlier this year, A&E announced plans for a new series, Duck Dynasty: The Revival, slated to premiere this summer.
