Patrick Miller Hemingway (June 28, 1928 – September 2, 2025) was an American wildlife manager and writer who was novelist Ernest Hemingway's second son and the first born to Hemingway's second wife Pauline Pfeiffer. During his childhood he travelled frequently with his parents and then attended Harvard University, graduated in 1950, and, shortly thereafter, moved to and lived in East Africa for twenty-five years. In Tanzania, Patrick was a professional big-game hunter and owned a safari business for more than a decade. In the 1960s, the United Nations appointed Hemingway to the Wildlife Management College in Tanzania as a teacher of conservation and wildlife. In the 1970s, he moved to Montana, where he managed the intellectual property of his father's estate. For example, he edited his father's unpublished novel about a 1950s safari to Africa and published it with the title True at First Light (1999).
