Phil Alexander Robertson (born April 24, 1946) is an American professional hunter, businessman (Duck Commander), and reality television star on the popular television series ''Duck Dynasty''. He is also featured on the television show ''Buck Commander'', a hunting program on the Outdoor Channel. He attended Louisiana Tech University, where he played football, but turned down an opportunity to play professionally with the Washington Redskins. He received a master's degree in education and spent several years teaching. Robertson was the subject of controversy after a 2013 interview he did with ''GQ'' magazine, where he said that homosexual behavior is sinful. As a result, A&E suspended him from ''Duck Dynasty''. Facing what was reported as "a strong backlash from Robertson's supporters", A&E lifted the suspension after nine days. ==Early life and education== Robertson was born in Vivian, Louisiana. He was the fifth of seven children of James and Merritt Robertson (née Hale). Because of financial setbacks during his childhood, the family lived in rugged conditions, having no electricity, toilet or bathtub. The family rarely went into town to buy groceries, and instead lived off of the fruits and vegetables they grew in their garden; the meat from deer, squirrels, fish and other game they hunted and fished; and the pigs, chickens and cattle they raised. In his book, ''Happy, Happy, Happy'', Robertson recalls that "It was the 1950s when I was a young boy, but we lived like it was the 1850s ... but we were always happy, happy, happy no matter the circumstances." Halfway between Vivian and Hosston is Robertson's restored log cabin birth home. The property is owned by Robertson's cousin, Nathan Hale. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Phil Robertson」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
