Gene Atkins Hill (May 15, 1928 Swartswood, New Jersey – May 31, 1997 Tucson, Arizona) is known for his contribution to nature-related magazines and his subsequent books. Hill served in Okinawa during World War II. Upon graduation from Harvard, he worked as an advertising copywriter for several Madison Avenue agencies, including J. Walter Thompson.
