In addition to being an actual, real-life cowboy, he worked as a ranch foreman managing Ed Harris&#8217;s ranch in Ocat\u00e8, New Mexico, worked on many films, including Ulee&#8217;s Gold with Jessica Biel and Peter Fonda, was a field ecologist in the Everglades doing research for Florida International University, and, on top of all that, now builds furniture by hand at his wood shop in Railroad Square. He seems like an almost mythical figure, our own version of Nick Offerman \u2013 a comparison which seems to annoy him, although it&#8217;s\u00a0 spectacularly hard to tell if Sean is annoyed.
