Emmy winning host (2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011), Jeff Probast is best known as the host of the American version of the international Survivor reality Competition series. Interestingly, he is generally praised by the show audience and contestants for his expressive personality. Nevertheless, The Los Angeles Time has explained his then Emmy winning streak in the category "Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality-Competition Program" with some extraordinary words. And guess what, we couldn't find a perfect explanation better than this. Here it is.
"The Los Angeles Time attributed Probst's undefeated track record in the category to his penchant for interacting with contestants on a compassionate personal level unseen in any of his competitors, transcending his role of host to that of counselor (From Wikipedia biography)".
Nevertheless, he is also known as the host of the topic based platform talk show called The Jeff Probst Show.
One of the 2001's People magazine "50 Most Beautiful People", Jeff has not only hosted wide varieties of show but he has also shined as a able producer (known for "Live For the Moment"), and aspiring director (known for "Finder's Fee" and "Kiss Me" ). Lastly, he is also the author of the Survivor based book Stranded.
No wonder his net worth is speculated to be 40 million US dollar.
Now moving on to his physical configuration, Jeff is an average tall man possessing the height of 5 feet and 9 inches. Impressively, Jeff is a well build up man, especially known for his good physique and expressively charming personality.
Amazingly, he looks great for 54 and so does his wife Lisa Ann Russell, an American actress at 43. Model turned actress Lisa was previously married to actor Mark Paul Gosselaar. Mark and Lisa met when she made a guest appearance on Saved By the Bell College Years. Lisa, who is known for her roles in on-screen movies such as "Kounterfiet" and "Twisted Love", has two kids of her own (with Mark).
On the other hand, Jeff has no children of his own. Impressively, Jeff is Lisa's children loving stepfather. Not only that, Jeff and Lisa has maintained good terms with Mark and his second wife and the children also adore all of the four adults as their parents.
Anyway, before his marriage to Lisa, Jeff was married (from 1996 to 2001) to his first wife Shelly Wright, an American psychotherapist. Precisely, Jeff and Lisa married on December 5, 2011. Moreover, Jeff dated Survivor contestant Julie Barry from 2004 to 2008.
Born on November 4, 1861, in Wichita Kansas to Jerry and Barbara Probst, Bellevue raised Jeff is a polished graduate from Seattle Pacific University. He initially accorded his raw media person skills by working as a producer and narrator of marketing videos at Boeing Picture/Television studio during his university days.
