How Amie Huguenard Met “Grizzly Man” Timothy Treadwell
Lionsgate Films Timothy Treadwell gained widespread fame and notoriety for his interactions with grizzly bears, appearing on nationally syndicated talk shows and in schools as a bear advocate.
Amie Lynn Huguenard was born in Buffalo, New York, on October 23, 1965. She developed an interest in science and medicine and was also fascinated by the outdoors, spending much of her spare time hiking and climbing while working as a doctor’s assistant in Colorado.
It was during this period in 1997 that she read a book, Among Grizzlies, whose author claimed to have found solace from drug addiction in the company of Alaska’s brown bears. The writer’s name was Timothy Treadwell.
Soon, Amie Huguenard reached out to Treadwell, thus beginning a relationship which would last for nearly six years. It wasn’t long before she was flying up to Alaska to spend portions of the summers with him among the grizzlies of Katmai National Park.
During her annual trips north with Treadwell, Huguenard proved to be a capable companion. Her hiking and survival skills prepared her well for Katmai, over 12,000 square miles of wilderness home to more than 2,000 brown bears.
And in January 2003, she moved to live with him in Malibu, California, taking a position as a physician’s assistant at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
