“Jerry’s ability to connect with people was at the heart of his success in everything he tried whether that was politics, broadcasting or just joking with people on the street who wanted a photo or a word,” family friend and spokesman Jene Galvin said in a statement. “He’s irreplaceable and his loss hurts immensely, but memories of his intellect, heart and humour will live on.”
Springer began his career by getting into politics in the 1970s, including being appointed Mayor of Cincinnati for one year in 1977. In 1991, he debuted “The Jerry Springer Show”, which originally began as a more politically-focused daytime talk show, but was eventually revamped with more controversial subject matter to garner bigger ratings.
