Meet Charlie Herschel, "Survivor: Gabon"'s gay, single NYC lawyer

Today CBS unveiled the cast of Survivor: Gabon, the 4,673rd season of their successful reality competition. And, as in past seasons, there is a gay man among the castaways: 29-year-old Charlie Herschel, an attorney from New York. Charlie runs marathons in his spare time (he says that his training helped him lose 60 pounds and keep it off) and that his strategy for game play is " "With high risks, come high rewards, but the risks must be calculated."

Take a peek at Charlie's bio if you want to learn more, or check out this intro video of Charlie discussing the game. After the wins of out contestants Todd and Richard, Charlie's combination of smarts, persuasive skills and physical strength sound pretty promising.
