About the author:
Nick Offerman is the New York Times bestselling author of Gumption: Relighting the Torch of Freedom with America’s Gutsiest Troublemakers, Paddle Your Own Canoe: One Man’s Fundamentals for Delicious Living, and Good Clean Fun: Misadventures in Sawdust at Offerman Woodshop. He is an actor, humorist, and woodworker. He is married to the most beautiful and talented actress working today, Megan Mullally. They live in Los Angeles, California, with their pups and an impressive collection of assorted wood clamps.
Where the Deer and the Antelope Play is a humorous and rousing set of literal and figurative sojourns as well as a mission statement about comprehending, protecting, and truly experiencing the outdoors, fueled by three journeys undertaken by Nick Offerman.
In 2018, Wendell Berry posed a question to Nick, a query that planted the seed of this book, sending Nick on two memorable journeys with pals—a hiking trip to Glacier National Park with his friends Jeff Tweedy and George Saunders, as well as an extended visit to his friend James Rebanks, the author of The Shepherd’s Life and English Pastoral. He followed that up with an excursion that could only have come about in 2020—Nick and his wife, Megan Mullally, bought an Airstream trailer to drive across (several of) the United States. These three quests inspired some “deep-ish” thinking from Nick, about the history and philosophy of our relationship with nature in our national parks, in our farming, and in our backyards; what we mean when we talk about conservation; and the importance of outdoor recreation, all subjects very close to Nick’s heart.
Nick Offerman will be in conversation with Alison Pill, who most recently co-starred in Star Trek: Picard for Paramount+, the Alex Garland FX miniseries, Devs, and the Amazon series Them. Other television includes American Horror Story: Cult and HBO’s The Newsroom.
