Bryant Gumbel Wiki Biography

Bryant Gumbel is a successful journalist and sports commentator. He is mostly known for appearing in the show called “The Today Show”. During his career Gumbel has won many awards, for example an Emmy Award, Martin Luther King Award, Peabody Award, International Journalism Award and many others. These awards only prove the fact that Bryant is a well known and acclaimed journalist. So how rich is Bryant Gumbel? It has been estimated that Bryant’s net worth is $18 million. As Gumbel still continues his career as a journalist there is every possibility that his net worth will grow in the future.

Bryant Charles Gumbel, known as Bryant Gumbel, was born in 1948 in Louisiana. Gumbel studied at Bates College and aftergraduating he started to work at “Black Sports Magazine”. In 1972 Bryant became a part of KNBC-TV, which was his first job on television. In 1975 Gumbel together with Jack Buck became host of “GrandStand”. This of course added to Bryant Gumbel’s net worth. While working at NBC Sports Bryant had an opportunity to gain more experience and also become more professional. In 1982 he became the host of one of his most famous programs, called “The Today Show”. The producers of this show chose Gumbel from many other candidates and this meant great acclaim in the industry. The show was really successful and had a huge impact on the growth of Bryant Gumbel’s net worth. In 1997 Bryant left the show, but he still sometimes appears on it during special occasions.

After some time, Bryant also worked on such shows as “Public Eye with Bryant Gumbel”, “The Early Show”, “Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel” and others. Despite the fact that he sometimes makes controversial remarks, Bryant is still respected as a journalist. In addition to this, Bryant has also appeared in the movie called “The Weather Man”, directed by Gore Verbinski. During the making of this film, Gumbel worked with Nicolas Cage, Michael Caine, Hope Davis and Michael Rispoli. This movie made Gumbel’s net worth higher as well. Bryant also worked at NFL Network, but was fired in 2008 and his place was taken by Bob Papa.

Bryant has been married twice: his first marriage was to June Baranco but he divorced her in 2001 and one year later married Hilary Quinlan. Bryant has two children.

All in all, one can say that Bryant Gumbel is a remarkable journalist and sports commentator. During his career Gumbel has experienced many events, and in particular has been able to witness many popular sports events. Maybe some people have not liked his controversial remarks very much, but he has been acclaimed by other journalists and sports commentators. Despite the fact that Gumbel lost a lot of money after divorcing from his first wife, Gumbel’s net worth is still quite high and might become even higher in the future. There is a high chance that we will see Gumbel again working in one of the famous programs as he still continues his career.
