The legendary host of the notorious Jerry Springer Show was actually born in Hampstead in 1944 after his parents fled Nazi Germany. At the age of just 5, the young Jerry moved to Queens, New York where his family finally settled. On gaining a degree in political science from Tulane University and a law degree from Northwestern University in 1968, Jerry worked as one of Robert F Kennedy's presidential campaign aides. Following Kennedy's tragic assassination, Jerry went on to work for a law firm in Cincinnati which actually kept him involved in politics – he eventually won a seat on the city's Council-at-Large in 1971.
Even back in the 70s, controversy was soon not far away. Although married, Springer was caught with a prostitute in a Kentucky massage parlour in 1973. When vice cops discovered his secret, Springer resigned his position and came clean during a 1974 press conference. As these things often go, his honesty worked overwhelmingly in his favour and he was elected mayor of Cincinnati in 1977, receiving the largest majority in the city's history.The legendary host of the notorious Jerry Springer Show was actually born in Hampstead in 1944 after his parents fled Nazi Germany.
