Jane Kilcher Bio: Early Life, Parents, and Education

Jane was born to Bob Ferman and his wife Sarah; she spent her childhood in Homer alongside her two siblings, Bobby and Jessica. She started exploring Alaskan wilderness from an early age and fishing became her hobby and now helps the Kilchers with her fishing skills.

Jane and Atz Lee Kilcher Relationship, Wedding, Children

Growing up close to each other, Jane and Atz Lee met when she was 12 years old. The two became friends almost instantly, and living just 11 miles away from the Kilcher homestead, it wasn’t hard for the two to keep their friendship alive. However, destiny had different plans; Jane married an Alaskan native Dicran Kassouni, who resides in Seldovia Alaska, and has a daughter from this relationship, Piper Isolde Kassouni. Unfortunately, there are no records when the two married and divorced, though it is known that her daughter was born on the 4th June 2003. However, fate brought Jane and Atz Lee back together in the mid- 2000s, and in no time the two started a romantic relationship, which eventually led to a wedding ceremony, held at the Head of the Bay in 2006. Though the couple has been married for 12 years, the two don’t have children of their own, but are parents to two children from their previous relationships. In addition to Piper, they have son Etienne – born in 2001 – who is the product of Atz Lee’s failed marriage to Nantia Krisintu.

“Alaska: The Last Frontier”

Due to the unusual lifestyle of the Kilchers, they have attracted attention from people around the world, and producers from the Discovery Channel, including Philip J Day, offered the Kilchers featured status in a new reality show that would follow them through their everyday life activities. The family accepted the offer, and the series “Alaska: The Last Frontier” premiered on the 29th December 2011. Since then, Jane has appeared in over 90 episodes of the Primetime Emmy Award-nominated series, which has made her popular around the world. The camera follows the extended Kilcher family through their daily operation in the Alaskan wilderness, living without plumbing and electricity, as they hunt for food to sustain them during the harsh winter. Jane helps the family by fishing, as from an early age she was taught how to fish, and for a few years she was a commercial fisherman. Thanks to her independence, strong attitude and good nature, Jane has become an idol to women all over the world.

Hunting Accident

The Kilchers face dangerous situations daily; during their hunts, they are prone to injuries and accidents on the whole. However, back in 2014, none were injured, but Jane and Atz Lee used a helicopter to hunt a black bear, which is illegal. She and Atz faced charges, but thanks to a deal to testify against the production company Wilma TV, Jane and Atz Lee were off the hook, and instead the production company paid $17,500 for the violation. The fact that she and Atz never caught the black bear also helped the charges be dropped against them.

Though born to her first husband, Piper bears the Kilcher family name.

Hopefully, Piper becomes a prominent part of the highly-popular series, and we learn more about this young Alaskan.

  1. i am so addicted to your show. Maybe, one reason is because I lived for awhile in Kodiak, Alaska. My husband was stationed there while in the Navy. We had electricity, plumbing and water. But, we did not have a lot of choices in the grocery store. Having a ship bring fresh produce and fruit and meat meant time off from work to go down to the harbor and get whatever we could. I drink a lot of Coca Cola and when there was a supply of coke, i literally ran down to get it. Another Navy wife and I were good friends (in fact Jane so reminds me of her). One night, while our husbands were out bar hopping, the announcement was made that there was coke on a ship that had just docked. Our husbands had the automobiles so we had no transportation. We called a cab, paid the driver double the charge and sent him to get coke. He went for a six bottle carton and enough money to buy a distributorship in the lower 48. When we got the cokes, we each drank three. That thirst quencher cost us nearly $100.00.
    Most of the time we could not get fresh meat (except for cornish game hens which I got so tired of eating). So, we fished a lot and we caught a lot of halibut and salmon. I learned how to cook both of these fish in a lot of different ways. We smoked a lot of salmon.
    In a final word, thank you for sharing the Homestead and bringing back so many good memories of a truly great state.
