Richard Hatch tell the story of his life in show business.

Richard Hatch gave a very informative talk about the the minefield that is HOLLYWOOD. His experiences in the long journey to resurrect Battlestar Galactica made for a very inspirational speech.

Richard Hatch is currently working on a reality show that is based on the behind the scene life in Hollywood.  The original title was "Who the frak is the real Richard Hatch?", It has been changed to "Who the frak is Richard Hatch?"  You can see a trailer for the show at the link below.  The reason for original name was the problem that Richard Hatch of Battlestar Galatica fame is not the Richard Hatch of Survivor fame, that is serving a jail sentences for Income Tax evasion. It is hard enough in to get a job in Hollywood without being considered a felon.  Take a look at the show it looks like a lot of fun.
