Bill Hill is a lifelong Alaskan. The son of two teachers, Bill spent nearly 25 years as a teacher, principal, and superintendent. In 2023, he was named Alaska Superintendent of the Year. A Dena’ina Athabascan, Bill grew up in a small village in Bristol Bay. His childhood was spent subsistence fishing and hunting, trapping, and raising and racing sled dog teams with his family. Bill started setnetting as a young kid, before joining his dad on the family drift boat when he was 12. He’s fished every fishing season in Bristol Bay since. He’s also worked union construction jobs in rural Alaska, from building houses to working on remote health clinics and canneries, and the sewer system in the Bristol Bay Borough. Bill and his wife started Bristol Bay Brailer, a textile manufacturing business that supplies custom-made brailers for the commercial fishing fleet. Bill is the father of four, and Chada (grandpa) to 7. His family has lived in Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Juneau, and he and his wife, Diane, are now back in Naknek, a population of 470.
