Early life

When the station was in use as a shield against German bombing during WWII, Gerald Norman Springer was born on Chandos Road, East Finchley. Margot's parents, along with Richard Springer (the store's owner) and Martin Springer, were German-Jewish refugees who escaped from Landsberg an der War the Prussia (now Gorzów Wielkopolski, Poland). Marie Kallmann, his maternal grandmother who was left homeless, died in Chemno's gas vans (German-occupied Poland). Selma Springer, his paternal grandmother (née Elkeles), died in the hospital in Theresienstadt's concentration camp (German-occupied Czechoslovakia). Hermann Elkeles, Selma Springer's brother, was a well-known Berlin doctor who died at the Theresien concentration camp.

Springer and his family immigrated to the United States in January 1949, settling in the Queens neighborhood of Kew Gardens, New York City. He attended Forest Hills High School in a nearby neighborhood. One of his earliest memories of current events was when he was 12 and watching the 1956 Democratic National Convention on television, where he was struck and inspired by John F. Kennedy.

Springer obtained a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Bath. Tulane University's degree in 1965 majoring in political science. He received a J.D. In 1968, Northwestern University earned a bachelor's degree.

Springer took over as a political campaign advisor to Robert F. Kennedy. Following Kennedy's assassination, he began practicing law at Frost & Jacobs, now Frost Brown Todd.

Political and journalist career

Springer ran for Congress in 1970. He was unable to depose incumbent Republican Donald D. Clancy, but he took only 5 percent of the vote in a heavily Republican district. He had previously spearheaded the drive to lower the voting age, including testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee in favor of the ratification of the 26th Amendment. Springer, who was also an Army reservist at the time, was called to active service and stationed at Fort Knox three days after announcing his candidacy. Since being kicked out, he resurgent his career.

In 1971, Springer was elected to the Cincinnati City Council. He resigned in 1974 after admitting to soliciting a prostitute. At a press conference, Springer came clean. Springer's tenure was criticized, but Springer's honesty helped him regained his seat in 1975, which was a landslide. Schottelkotte graciously told Springer that he had revealed Springer's career before in a post-election interview. "I'm glad that you were wrong," Springer told the newsman.

He was elected by the city council in 1977 to serve one year as mayor for one year. Springer could only serve one year as mayor due to a political deal at the time (Cincinnati has since changed to direct election of its mayor) that has prompted the Democrats to split the mayoral term with the Charter Committee, a local third party party group, with whom the Democrats ruled in a political alliance. Springer's bid in the city council and as mayor suggested that council members be elected by districts (thus better representing local interests) rather than the "9X" at large, but his attempts (as well as those of others) did not succeed.

Springer's 1982 Democratic nomination for governor of Ohio was rejected by a democratic candidate. Springer's campaign commercials referred to his use of a check to pay a prostitute, and he said he was not afraid of the truth even though it hurts. He failed to gain the Democratic Party's nomination, finishing third, behind former lieutenant governor Richard F. Celeste and Ohio Attorney General William J. Brown's political career was put on hold, and his political career was put on hold. He was instrumental in the salvaging of Cincinnati's historic Union Terminal in the 1980s.

Springer considered running for the United States Senate in 2000 and 2004, but he turned down due to poor links with Jerry Springer. He considered running in the 2018 Ohio gubernatorial election but decided against it due to his age.

Springer's broadcasting career began as he was a student at Tulane University on WTUL New Orleans FM, a progressive format college radio station. With album-oriented rock radio station WEBN-FM, which was known for its laid-back and irreverent radio style, it continued while he was still mayor of Cincinnati. "The Springer Memorandum" was featured on the station, as well as Springer's commentaries. These commentaries' renownance began with his broadcasting work.

Springer was recruited as a political reporter and commentator on Cincinnati's NBC affiliate, WLWT, which had, at the time, the lowest-rated news service. Later, having been named primary news anchor and managing editor, he needed a broadcast catcher to imitate other great newsmen. He created his signature line "Take care of yourself and each other" with the support of some others at WLWT. He and partner Norma Rashid were Cincinnati's top-one news anchors for two years, as well as partner Norma Rashid. He was the most popular one in the city for five years, winning ten local Emmy Awards for his nightly commentaries, which were often mocked by Cincinnati radio personality Gary Burbank. Those commentaries would eventually become Jerry Springer's "Final Thought." Springer will remain a commentator at WLWT until January 1993. During this period, he lived in Loveland, Ohio.

Springer was hired by a Chicago-based NBC-owned station in 1997 to act as a news commentator. However, this was unpopular among viewers, as it culminated in Ron Magers and Carol Marin's departures. Springer resigned as a commentator after only two commentators.

Broadcasting career

Jerry Springer debuted on September 30, 1991. It was designed by WLWT to look and feel like his fellow talk show The Phil Donahue Show, right down to Jerry's haircut and glasses, making him seem as Phil Donahue (both were produced by Multimedia Entertainment). It began as a politically oriented talk show, a longer version of Springer's commentaries. Oliver North and Jesse Jackson were among the guests, and their topics included homelessness and gun control.

Springer and his newbie, Richard Dominick, redesigned the show's format in order to receive higher ratings in early 1994. The show became more popular as it became more aimed at tabloidish sensationalism. Guests were invited by a spouse or family member's adultery, homosexuality, prostitution, transvestism, hate group membership, or other controversial topics. Scripted shouting or physical assaults were often used in these confrontations. The program attracted high ratings and a lot of attention. It was overtaking The Oprah Winfrey Show in several towns by 1998, with more than 6.7 million viewers.

The sons of visitor Nancy Campbell-Panitz – who was murdered by her ex-husband after they appeared on a May 2000 episode with his wife – filed a lawsuit in Sarasota County against Springer, his developers, and his distributor, claiming it triggered "a mood that led to murder." The estate of Campbell-Panitz and his counsel dropped all monetary charges against Jerry Springer, and the show decided to not bring any charges against the personal representative of Campbell-Panitz and his counsel.
