Who Is Anderson Cooper?

Anderson Hays Cooper was born on 3 June 1967 in Manhattan, New York City, USA, and is a television personality, journalist and author, best known for his work as a part of CNN, on which he is the anchor of his own news show entitled “Anderson Cooper 360”. He also often broadcasts live for CNN from Washington DC, and is well-known for reporting on location during breaking news stories. He previously hosted his own daytime talk show entitled “Anderson Live”, and is now also a part of the show “60 Minutes” as a correspondent.

The Net Worth of a High Profile Journalist

How just how rich is Anderson Cooper? As of early-2018, sources estimate a net worth that is at $100 million, mostly earned through a successful career in broadcast journalism. He has also worked for other networks earlier in his career, and is known for writing for various publications, as well as for writing books. All of these have contributed to his wealth, and as he continues his career, it is expected that his net worth will also continue to increase.

Is Anderson Cooper Married? Family and Personal Life

Anderson is not married but he did confide to The New York Times in 2012 that he is “the most prominent openly gay journalist on American television”, having previously avoided revealing too much about his personal life. Two years later he and his partner purchased the historic Connecticut estate entitled Rye House. Being openly gay, he was approached by Apple CEO Tim Cook for advice before Cook himself revealed publicly that he was gay as well.

Posted by Anderson Cooper on Monday, May 9, 2016

Anderson is the son of heiress Gloria Vanderbilt, but has said that he wasn’t going to inherit any of his mother’s wealth. Despite that, he’s had so much success that he has long been a millionaire in his own right. Growing up, he suffered dyslexia, which he revealed live to both Oprah Winfrey and Jay Leno, though he mentions that it is only mild.

The Path to Broadcast Journalism

Being the son of the famous Gloria Vanderbilt, Cooper had a lot of exposure to the media growing up. He was a part of photo shoots, television appearances with his mother, and was also engaged in modelling work from the age of 10. His father passed away at the age of 50 years old and in 1988, his older brother would commit suicide by jumping from his mother’s penthouse apartment; it was believed that his suicide was the effect of a prescription drug which caused a psychotic episode. The event would become the spark of Cooper’s interest in journalism.

He attended Dalton School, and after matriculating went on to travel in Africa on a “survival trip”. Afterwards, he attended Yale University and eventually graduated with a degree in political science in 1989. While at Yale, he went on an internship with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), but rather than stay with the agency, he chose to pursue a career in journalism. His first experience with the news was in the 1990s, but eventually he took a break and lived in Vietnam, during which he attended Vietnam National University, Hanoi to study the language.

Anderson first job in broadcasting was working for Channel One as a fact checker, handling youth-oriented news programs. During this time, he forged a press pass and went to Myanmar to meet with students fighting the Burmese government; these home made news events were eventually sold to Channel One. In 1995, he moved to ABC News and started working there as a correspondent. He quickly rose up through positions to become the co-anchor on the show “World News Now”, then in 2000, he decided to take a job as the host of the reality show entitled “The Mole”, but would only stay with the show for two seasons, and then moved to CNN. He decided to go back to working in news programs after the events of 9/11.

In 2003, he got his first show on CNN, becoming the anchor of “Anderson Cooper 360”. He subsequently covered numerous high profile events over the next few years, including the death of Pope John Paul II, the Cedar Revolution in Beirut, and the royal wedding of Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles. He also reported on the aftermath of “Hurricane Katrina”, and his work on reporting would gain a lot of attention from the higher-ups of CNN, which led him to signing a multi-year contract which doubled his salary from $2 million to $4 million. He started to work on more shows, including the syndicated talk show “Anderson Live” as well as “CNN Heroes: An All-Star Tribute”. He also worked as a correspondent for the CBS program entitled “60 Minutes” which he did while concurrently serving with CNN.

Cooper also worked as a freelance writer, producing various articles for magazines including “Details”. He also has a best seller book entitled “Dispatches from the Edge” which detailed his work in various places around the world. Some of the book’s proceeds are given to charity.

Quotes

# Quote
1 It’s become clear to me that by remaining silent on certain aspects of my personal life for so long, I have given some the mistaken impression that I am trying to hide something – something that makes me uncomfortable, ashamed, or even afraid. This is distressing because it is simply not true. The fact is, I’m gay, always have been, always will be, and I couldn’t be any more happy, comfortable with myself, and proud.
2 As a child, I used to spend summers at the beach, and I loved to run along the edge of the sand cliffs made by the retreating tide. As I ran, I could feel the sand collapse beneath me, but as long as I kept moving forward, kept running fast, I could stay one step ahead of the falling cliff. That’s what anchoring the news is like. You can easily falter, easily destroy your career in a sentence or two. The key is to keep going, keep moving, never forget you’re running on sand.
3 I think I was really shaped by loss, by the loss of my dad when I was ten, and the suicide of my brother when I was twenty-one and he was twenty-three. Both those things motivated me to be independent and self-reliant, to set out on my own and figure out my way in the world in a way that I thought would lead to a healthy, happier life.
4 I started going to wars by myself because I was interested in the issues of survival. I wanted to be around people who spoke the language of loss.
5 [on celebrities] Seeing these people on TV, you think you want to be like them. But when you meet them, it’s kind of disappointing. You realize, my God, they’re just as desperate as everybody else. Especially the people in movies and TV. They’re always looking around to see what more famous, better paid person is about to come into the room and steal their thunder. [They’re]really creative and interested and fascinating, but they’re also driven and kind of mad and unhappy.
6 I haven’t reached the level of ego yet where I can talk about myself in the third person, but I’m so hoping I reach that stage.
7 When a big event happens people turn on to CNN, not only because they know there will be people there covering an event on the ground, but because they know we’re going to cover it in a way that’s non-partisan, that’s not left or right.
8 You know, I understand why people might be interested. But I just don’t talk about my personal life. It’s a decision I made a long time ago, before I ever even knew anyone would be interested in my personal life. The whole thing about being a reporter is that you’re supposed to be an observer and to be able to adapt with any group you’re in, and I don’t want to do anything that threatens that. [In New York magazine, responding to rumors that he might be gay.]
9 Regarding his appearance on Celebrity Jeopardy: “It was called the Power Players edition, though I’m not sure why I was in it because I’m neither a “playa” nor a person of power. The experience really made me realize how much of a loser I am, because of how much I got into it. I mean, it’s kind of a no-win proposition. In what I do you’re supposed to know a certain amount of things, and there you are exposing yourself to ridicule for not knowing stuff. I didn’t consider it that much in advance, but that morning I woke up and was like ‘What have I got myself into?’ But I feel OK about it now.”
10 When I was younger, I talked to the adults around me that I respected most about how they got where they were, and none of them plotted a course they could have predicted, so it seemed a waste of time to plan too long-term. Since then I’ve always gone on my instincts.
11 If I’m hip, we’ve got a problem in this country. I really shouldn’t be held up as any model of hipness. If anything I think I’m sort of old school in my approach to objective reporting and not wearing my opinion on my sleeve. There’s a lot of that in American TV news these days. Too much, in fact.
12 Obviously I was well aware that I had what people consider a privileged upbringing. My mom was never a bake-cookies sort of mom. I really had no reins whatsoever.
13 Anyone who has experienced a certain amount of loss in their life has empathy for those who have experienced loss.
14 I am sort of drawn toward places in the world where there is struggle and conflict.
15 When the war in Iraq began I was anchoring the overnight coverage for CNN. Your teleprompter is blank and you have four hours to fill, and it can be a very long night if you don’t know your stuff. I like that challenge.
16 I’ve always loved reporting from the field most of all. There’s something about doing live TV and being there as it happens that’s always appealed to me. I think there’s great value to bearing witness to these events as they’re actually happening.
17 “I very much do not want to become what I used to make fun of. The newscaster on The Simpsons (1989) sadly is not that far off from what you see out there”.
18 Going gray is like ejaculating: you know it can happen prematurely, but when it does it comes as a total shock.
19 We do things with a wink and a nod. If you don’t include yourself in the critique, you have no business doing it.
