Swamp People cast member Anna ‘The Archer’ Ribbeck joined the show in 2023. She starred on a well-known US game show back in 2018, four years before she got the call to join the History show. Anna helps Troy Landry hunt for alligators – and she absolutely loves her brave job.
Anna’s biggest alligator catch was a 12-footer weighing 500 lbs. The Swamp People star grew up ditch fishing before becoming a forager and archer who loves cooking in the kitchen. A woman of many talents, the alligator hunter is now a History show cast member showing her skills on TV.
Who is Swamp People’s Anna Ribbeck?
Based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Anna Ribbeck is a Swamp People cast member, as well as archer, forager and social media strategist at LSU AgCenter. She is also known as Anna The Archer.
Anna is best friends with Ashley “Deadeye” Jones, and two hunt alligators on Swamp People. Anna loves bowhunting alligators and you may see her use the bow on the show to harvest them!
She grew up playing basketball, ditch fishing and eating crawfish. She was not introduced to hunting or archery until her early twenties, but got into the activity at LSU University – and the rest is history.
Anna starred on Wheel of Fortune
Anna was a Wheel of Fortune participant in January 2018, when she had just graduated from LSU University, where she now works. During her debut, she introduced a national audience to archery.
The moment came in 2016 when she had just earned a degree in horticulture. She lives in Gainesville, Florida, and is a sponsored archer for Bear Archery who shoots competitively.
Hoping to win a Swiss holiday to Austria, Switzerland and Bavaria, Anna went home with a nice little payday of $6,000! It was just a few years before she got in touch with a Swamp People producer.

Posted by Anna The Archer on Monday, January 15, 2018She’s besties with Troy Landry
Anna has videos with Troy Landry all over her Instagram page. She revealed an insight into their recent gator season and said: “Louisiana suffered a drought this year and gator hunting was harder than usual.”
Both Anna and Troy often make recipes with their alligator catches. She believes in eating everything she hunts, including deer, alligator and turkey, and bow hunts invasive nutria in the Louisiana marsh.
Swamp People star Anna stars alongside Landry on Swamp Mysteries this season, when she helps him save a friend’s ranch. She’s seen using her bow and arrow to try and catch a mystery creature.
