Maury Povich
For more than ten years, talk show presenter, anchor, and news reporter Maury Povich, 67, has been a part of the television industry.In addition to Julia Child, he has conducted interviews with writers, actors, politicians, and international leaders.
Among Povich’s tributes are sportscasters Michael Wilbon and Tony Kornheiser, as well as Whoopi Goldberg, Kelly Clarkson, Lewis Black, and Karamo Brown. After starting in 1991, he terminated his tabloid-style show last year.
Rupert Murdoch, the owner of Fox Television, had Povich host “A Current Affair” from 1986 to 1990. Murdoch chastised Povich for raising his Emmy prize, saying that earning viewers counted more than accolades, according to Povich’s memory.
