Hal Humphreys is co-owner and director of instruction at PI Education and executive editor of Pursuit Magazine.
As a licensed private investigator, a certified general real estate appraiser, and a former certified fraud examiner, Hal has spent nearly 30 years chasing down information by knocking on doors and digging into musty courthouse archives. As the owner of [FIND] Investigations, a PI agency in Nashville, TN, Hal discovered the work he loves best: criminal defense investigations. He’s worked high-profile murder cases for private attorneys and post-conviction cases for the federal defender’s office. Hal is also a writer and radio producer whose work has appeared on Marketplace, WNYC’s On the Media, and Fast Company. When he’s not interviewing witnesses, you can find him cooking with fire at his riverside camp in Tennessee or, ideally, hiking the Camino de Santiago in Spain.
