Fred Pickler

بیوگرافی

Fred Pickler is an American actor, author, former deputy sheriff and photographer, instructor in police chemical munitions in the US, Australia and New Zealand, and counter-terrorist munitions instructor, whose photographs have appeared in Life Magazine. He is possibly best remembered as Detective Tom Gordon/Yellow Man in David Lynch’s controversial film Blue Velvet, which Pickler almost walked out of during its premiere. He was also a deputy with the New Hanover County Sheriff’s Department for eight years, and chief evidence technician at the death scene of Robert Harrill. Pickler would eventually co-write The Reluctant Hermit of Fort Fisher about Harrill's life, and was elected president of the Fort Fisher Hermit Society, formed in Harrill's honor.
