A true New Hampshire legend, Fritz has worked at everything from tree climbing to being the Creative Director in an ad agency. 

“I know the state very well,” he said, “I have met all the Governors from Sherman Adams on, and I’ve read most of the town histories.”

For ten years Fritz was the host of New Hampshire Crossroads on New Hampshire Public Television. For the past eight years he has written and presented a different nightly story on N. H. Chronicle. His segment is called, Fritz Wetherbee’s New Hampshire.

“I do historic stuff and funny stuff and personal stories. The only limits I have are that the stories are never to get old. We should be able to repeat any story in ten years and, aside from the car I am driving, no one should know it's an old piece. And,” he says, “all my stories must be about New Hampshire.”

Fritz lives with his “better half”, Laura in a two-hundred-fourteen-year-old home in Acworth (“The first town in the state,” he says,”…alphabetically.”) On his library shelves are dozens of state books plus five Emmys and a Bobble-Head Doll . He was honored with the bobble-head of himself for throwing out the first pitch at a Fisher Cats Game a couple years back.
