Frank Howard Buck [1884-1950] was an American hunter, animal collector and author, as well as a film actor, director and producer. Beginning in the 1910s he made many expeditions into Asia for the purpose of hunting and collecting exotic animals, bringing over 100,000 live specimens back to the United States and elsewhere for zoos and circuses. He co-authored books chronicling his expeditions,. The first of these, "Bring 'Em Back Alive", became a bestseller. In the thirties and early forties he starred in seven adventure films based on his exploits, most featuring "fights to the death" with various wild animals.
