It's got to be pretty exciting to get a job on an Oscar-nominated film.  And The Revenant racked up a Best Actor statuette for Leonardo DiCaprio, as well as awards for Best Cinematography and Best Directing.

So why isn't Minnesota boy and a UMD grad Tim Sitarz splashing on-set photos and behind-the-scenes details all around? 

A little thing called a non-disclosure agreement.

Tim Sitarz may or may not have stunt-doubled for the bear that attacked Leonardo DiCaprio in the movie, but you didn't hear that from him.

He does, however, double for  country singer Toby Keith, on occasion.  And he sent us proof.

Lisa Johnson started her broadcast career anchoring the television news at her high school and spinning country music at KWWK/KOLM Radio in Rochester, Minnesota. She was a reporter and news anchor at KTHI in Fargo, ND (not to mention the host of a children's program called "Lisa's Lane") and a radio reporter and anchor in Moorhead, Bismarck, Wahpeton and Fergus Falls.Since 1991, she has hosted Northland Morning on KUMD. One of the best parts of her job includes "paying it forward" by mentoring upcoming journalists and broadcasters on the student news team that helps produce Northland Morning. She also loves introducing the different people she meets in her job to one another, helping to forge new "community connections" and partnerships.Lisa has amassed a book collection weighing over two tons, and she enjoys reading, photography, volunteering with Animal Allies Humane Society and fantasizing about farmland. She goes to bed at 8pm, long before her daughter, two cats, or three dogs.
