Hart’s professional career began in 1977 as an associate manager in
the family business which is a trade show production company specializing in consumer shows involving travel, boating, fishing, hunting and
the outdoors. Currently, Hart is CEO of Hart Productions, Inc. In 1983, Ray Scott, President of
the Bass Anglers Sportsmen Society, asked Hart to produce
the first major outdoor show to be tied to
the BASSMASTERS Classic scheduled for
the
Ohio River in August of 1985.
Through this effort, Hart was fortunate to be able to meet and create lifelong contacts in
the professional fishing outdoors industries. Communicating and providing
the excitement of
the outdoors to o
thers became a passion. Particularly encouraging today’s youth to participate and appreciate
the outdoors.
