Richard Hatch (reality TV)
Richard Hatch (born April 8, 1961) is the winner of the first American Survivor series, which aired in 2000 and was set in Pulau Tiga.
Before Survivor, Hatch was a corporate trainer from Newport, Rhode Island. He has spent five years in the US Army, is a licensed real estate agent and has also worked as a car salesman and a bartender.
During the series, Hatch displayed infamous nudist tendencies, and had little problem with playing much of the game naked. Not particularly well-loved by his fellow tribe mates, Hatch was nevertheless able to win the game by careful (and often underhanded and deceptive) plotting and scheming.
The following contains spoilers regarding Survivor: All-Stars, which hasn't been shown on (most) parts of the world yet.
In 2004, he was brought back to Survivor as a contestant on Survivor: All-Stars, where he was voted out during the fifth episode, to his considerable surprise. Prior to his removal, he caused some controversy when during a challenge he briefly rubbed his naked body against competitor Sue Hawk. The event traumatized Sue, and she resigned from the game shortly after Richard was voted out.
