Jeff Probst
Jeff Probst (/proʊbst/; born 1961) is an American television presenter, producer, actor and young adult fiction writer. He is best known as the Emmy Award–winning host of the American version of the reality television show Survivor since 2000. He was also the host of The Jeff Probst Show, a syndicated daytime talk show produced by CBS Television Distribution from September 2012 to May 2013.
Probst was born at Wesley Medical Center in Wichita, Kansas, the oldest of three sons to Jerry and Barbara Probst. His family moved to Bellevue, Washington, when Probst was 15 years old. After graduating from Newport High School in 1979, Probst attended Seattle Pacific University, but left before graduating to pursue a career in television. Soon after leaving college, he began working at Boeing Motion Picture/Television studio as a producer and later narrator of marketing and training videos.
In addition to Survivor, Probst once hosted FX's original half-hour show dedicated to answering viewer letters, Backchat, along with Sound FX, a music series featuring Orlando Jones (1996). Probst also hosted the VH1 series Rock & Roll Jeopardy! from 1998 to 2001 and was a correspondent for the syndicated program Access Hollywood. He also wrote and directed the Lionsgate released film, Finder's Fee. People magazine named Probst one of the "50 Most Beautiful People" in 2001. He often contributes to Jeopardy! by giving Survivor-related clues from the show's venues, has twice appeared on Celebrity Jeopardy!, first in 2001 and again in 2003, and made several cameo appearances during the April 1, 2010, episode. He was a frequent guest star on the sketch show Mad TV, guest-starring once a season since the show's 9th season. He hosted "Celebrity Superfan Roundtable" for Howard Stern.
Probst is the host of Survivor, a globally syndicated American reality show which he has hosted since its inception in 2000. He has stated that he had worked hard to get a meeting with series creator Mark Burnett as he believed the show was "something special." Probst caught Burnett's eye in 1999 when he interviewed Sandra Bullock while working for Access Hollywood. Burnett was impressed by Probst's ability to garner honest answers from media trained celebrities and felt that his relative anonymity would allow the show to be built "from the ground up." Probst has won four Primetime Emmy Awards as the host of Survivor. He delivers the series' signature catchphrase to losing contestants, "The tribe has spoken. It's time for you to go," which was included in TV Land's "The 100 Greatest TV Quotes and Catch Phrases" special in 2006.
On October 20, 2008, TV Guide reported that Probst was developing a new reality TV series for CBS called Live for the Moment that was to feature people with terminal illnesses being taken on "the last adventure of their life" before they die. Only the pilot was aired, on January 28, 2010.
On April 1, 2009, Probst appeared on the CBS reality television special I Get That a Lot, in which he worked a cash register.
In October 2011, he appeared as himself on the sitcom How I Met Your Mother, in the episode "The Stinson Missile Crisis".
In January 2012, Probst was announced as director of his second feature film, coming-of-age story Kiss Me, starring John Corbett and Sarah Bolger, with production scheduled to begin in Los Angeles the following month.
