Anderson Cooper Biography |
|
CNN President on Anderson Cooper's Appeal: CNN/ US President Jon Klein says of Cooper, "He's got a refreshing way of being the anti- anchor. He's not quote-unquote reporting at you. He's Just being himself. He's asking the questions you would like answered. He's getting involved the way you might. You feel that he's a regular person that you can trust talking to you. He brings such a passion to the storytelling that's infectious."
Anderson Cooper at CNN: Since joining CNN in late 2001, Anderson Cooper has anchored major breaking stories, including the War in Afghanistan after Sept 11, the start of the Iraq war, the DC-area sniper story and the Space Shuttle Columbia explosion. On his own program, this high-energy journalist has traveled the world, reporting on top stories from the tsunami, Iraqi elections, the death of Pope John Paul II, various natural disasters, to, of course, the post-Hurricane Katrina debacle on the Gulf Coast.
Growing Up As a Vanderbilt:
Though born into wealth, the teenage Cooper worked summers as a waiter. He pursued his first job, at age 11, as a Ford model because he "wanted to...be financially independent." COOPER's older brother (by two years) committed suicide in 1988 by jumping from Vanderbilt's 14th floor apartment in New York. Before then, Anderson was on track at Yale to enter foreign diplomatic service. After his brother's death, he took a year off, then pursued a job in TV. Anderson Cooper is mildly dyslexic.
Memorable Quotes:
"To me, there is value in bearing witness to what is happening to people who are living their lives with great dignity in the face of horror. People have asked me why I would want to go to Iraq. To me, it's a privilege to be able to do that."
