Jerry Springer

American Television Host, Mayor of Cincinnati

This information was accurate on August 24, 2016, when Jerry Springer spoke during a CMC forum.

In addition to hosting The Jerry Springer Show, now in its 26th Season, Jerry Springer has been the Mayor of Cincinnati, an Emmy award-winning newscaster, executive producer, game show host, lawyer, and political pundit. He has appeared in movies, on Broadway, and currently hosts, The Jerry Springer Podcast.

Springer was born on February 13, 1944 in London’s Highgate Tube station due to the bombs of World War II. At 5 years old, Springer and his family immigrated to New York City from London on the Queen Mary. His college years took him south to Louisiana where he earned a degree in political science at Tulane University. He then went on to receive his law degree from Northwestern University in Illinois. He then signed on with the Kennedy campaign, but shortly thereafter felt the horror of Kennedy’s assassination along with the rest of the world. This moment in history served as a catalyst for Springer, compelling him into political action.
