Les Stroud , the Survivor Man, best known as star of the six-time Gemini nominated hit TV series Survivorman (OLN Canada, The Science Channel US, Discovery Channel International, City TV (Rogers) Canada), Les Stroud continues to forge new pathways as a prolific, creative force. He single-handedly created, produced, wrote, filmed, hosted, edited and composed the theme music for the first two original, one-hour pilots that would eventually become the hit Survivorman TV series. The only producer in the history of television to produce an internationally broadcast series entirely written, videotaped and hosted alone, Stroud is credited with starting a new genre of television known as ‘Survival TV’. Survivorman became the highest rated show in the history of both OLN Canada and the Science Channel US and among the most popular and highest rated shows on Discovery Channel US.
Stroud has appeared on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson (3 times), The Ellen DeGeneres Show, MTV Live (2 times), The View, The Hour, and Larry King Live (4 times). In July 2010, Les was invited by the Prime Minister of Canada (The Honourable Stephen Harper) to meet the Queen of England and the Duke of Edinborough during their 2010 Royal Tour of Canada. Stroud’s commercial with famous Geico Gecko was referenced by David Letterman, Howard Stern and numerous other media personalities and he has been parodied on the hit TV sitcoms ‘The Office’ and ‘King of the Hill’.
Stroud has appeared in and/or produced numerous television specials including hosting the 20th Anniversary of Discovery Channel’s Shark Week (2007); I Shouldn’t Be Alive: the Science of Survival (2008), Surviving Sharks (Shark Week 2008), Expedition Everest, Surviving Urban Disasters, After the Experiment (Discovery), Deadly Waters (Shark Week 2009), and “Off the Grid with Les Stroud”. In 2010, he earned his seventh Gemini nomination as Executive Producer/Host of the hit kids TV series ‘Survive This’ and ‘Survive This 2’ (YTV, Cartoon Network). He is also Executive Producer/Host of NHL celebrity survival series “Survival Challenge” (OLN). “Les Stroud Beyond Survival” (2010) earns Les another certifiable hit with ratings surpassing all movies and even sports TV on a couple of US airings, and becoming one of the highest rated programs on Canada’s OLN.
Celebrated keynote speaker, musician and author, his debut book: “Survive! – Essential Skills and Tactics to Get You Out of Anywhere–Alive!” (Harper Collins) made the bestseller list for 20 weeks and broke the top 100 on Amazon.com. His latest book “Will to Live” (Harper Collins) had already sold 20,000 pre-ordered copies before hitting bookshelves across Canada November 6th.
Musically, Stroud has worked with the top in the business, including Alice Cooper, Robby Krieger, Tommy Shaw, Steven Stills, Canadian’s The Northern Pikes, and renowned producer Terry Brown. Continuing through winter 2011, Les will be back in the studio and focused on music. Working with the management team at SRO Anthem (best known as Rush and Steven Page’s management), Stroud’s next challenge is an exciting new album and multi-media tour, heavily influenced by indigenous sounds and images collected from his Beyond Survival travels around the globe.
A proud member of the Explorers Club, Les contributes to dozens of charities and benefits, and is a Survival Specialist Instructor for the Canadian Armed Forces. writes that “I have had the chance, while filming underwater around the world, to work with many brands of housings. When it came time to owning my own, I went with Equinox. They simply gave me the durability, quality and security I needed for some pretty intense work. It’s simple” a wet camera is a ruined shoot and possibly a loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars. Equinox Housings protect me from that.”
