Jerry Springer - career development champion

Jerry Springer is known as a journalist and politician who worked with leading American politicians, including one of the US president's brother Robert Kennedy. But about what is real fame, Springer learned only in 1991, when he created a scandalous show was first presented to the court of the American audience.

The "junk" talk show

The rare "Jerry Springer Show" does without a fight, and intellectual discussions, swirling around controversial issues, have traditionally evolved into an "exchange of courtesies." The rules of the show are simple: its doors are supposedly always open to problematic, as well as being on the verge of collapse of families. Only here people can discuss their problems and get a qualified consultation free of known experts - psychologists, lawyers and doctors.

In fact, the program has long since migrated to the category of so-called garbage television talk shows, which earn a living by flaunting the most impious human passions, such as adultery, incest, pedophilia, racism, and all sorts of phobias arising from all of the above.

For some people who are not known to anyone Jerry Springer and his show program have become a kind of springboard for fame. Thanks to the show, for example, the star of Dana Hana, an actress, producer and screenwriter, was lit. From 1991 to 2007, Khana co-starred in 10 programs.

The new Springer program, called ID Xtra, launched on April 1, 2014, does not imply the termination of the Shaw, but rather is its more extensive application.

Biography of Jerry Springer

Birthday politician, producer, actor and TV presenter Jerry Springer - February 13, 1944, and his hometown - London (United Kingdom). Coming from a Jewish family who immigrated to Great Britain in search of salvation from the persecution of SS men, Jerry learned from childhood what persecution is. When the boy was five years old, his parents moved to the United States.

The enthusiasm for political science was born in Springer under the influence of the closest associates: the elder members of the family always followed with interest the events taking place in the world political arena. A special impression on the boy was made by the speeches of the famous Democrat John F. Kennedy.

In 1965, when the years of study were over, the young bachelor Jerry Springer was seriously carried away by politics and by 1967 had already reaped the fruits of his labors: a highly intelligent, extraordinary and excellent memory of a young man was hard not to notice. The official biographers of Springer, describing the beginning of his career, mention the legal education obtained at a prestigious university, as well as his work as an assistant to Senator Robert F. Kennedy (the sibling of President John F. Kennedy).

The world of show business Springer will be interested later. First, leaving politics, he will try on the image of the actor and producer - communication with representatives of this professional environment gave him the greatest pleasure.

A spoon of tar

The political biography of Jerry Springer ended as swiftly as it began. According to information obtained from unofficial sources, Springer's departure from politics was not part of his plans, until the quick paparazzi obtained a check, which Jerry allegedly handed to the girls on his own.

Lightning promotion to the career ladder was over, and the angry Springer, retired to the world of television art, soon found a new application - he started creating his own television show, the main theme of which were sex scandals.

Having played about fifty roles in feature films (actor Jerry Springer often played himself) and shooting dozens of documentaries, Springer was nominated seven times for the Emmy Award (the most prestigious television award in America), then left the film actor's field, but did not go into oblivion.

For more than a quarter of a century his show has hit all records of popularity, dozens of countries have acquired the right to rent it, and Jerry himself accounts for several million dollars annually.
