After graduating from high school in 1983, he studied business administration. However, since Kerner actually wanted to go into the media industry, he completed a traineeship at Sender Freies Berlin (SFB) in 1986/87. Here he worked for SFB television as a sports reporter in the programs "Sport 3" and "SFB Sportreport" until 1992. In 1992, Kerner signed a contract with "SAT.1", for which he worked as a presenter and commentator on the sports programs "ran" and "ranissimo". During the 1994 World Cup, the increasingly popular sports reporter was featured in the World Cup magazine "ran USA '94".
From 1996 onwards, Kerner also demonstrated his abilities as a presenter outside of sports journalism: he now went on air with his first daily talk show, which was broadcast on SAT.1 for two years under the title "Kerner". Towards the end of 1997, Kerner switched from this private channel to the second public channel. He developed into one of the figureheads of ZDF, for which he moderated the "Current Sportstudio" and the annual review "People" and "Our Best". In January 1998, Kerner went on air with his own weekly talk show "Johannes B. Kerner" on ZDF, in which he spoke every Thursday with prominent people as well as ordinary people about their life stories.
Also from 1998, Kerner also took on tasks as a live football reporter, including at major events such as the 1998 World Cup in France and the 2000 European Championships in Belgium and the Netherlands. ZDF also relied on Johannes B. Kerner for its Olympic coverage from Sydney 2000 and the 2002 World Cup in Japan and South Korea. Kerner's talk show became one of the most successful German talk shows with an average of more than two million viewers. At the beginning of 2002, the weekly broadcast time was expanded to four weekly broadcast times from Tuesday to Friday. Kerner has already received several awards, including the youth magazine "Bravo" awarding him the "Otto" readers' award four times between 1996 and 1999: two times in silver and two times in bronze.
In 1996 he was awarded the "Golden Lion" by the private broadcaster "RTL" and by the magazine "Sport-Bild" as "Most Popular Sports Presenter", which he was also considered the following year. He received the "Best Commentator" award for his work during the 1998 World Cup in France. In mid-June 2003 it became known that ZDF had granted the moderator a contract extension so that Kerner could continue his evening talk and his commitments to other ZDF programs. In 2003, Kerner received the "Golden Camera" in the "Best Talk Show Host" category and the "Golden Feather". In a survey by the program magazine "TV Total" in October 2004, Kerner took first place among the most popular talk presenters on German television.
The readers of the magazine "TV-Spielfilm" also voted him "Talker of the Year 2004". Also in 2004, Kerner was honored with the "Bambi" for "Infotainment". Together with his colleague Steffen Seibert, Kerner received another "Bambi" in December 2005, this time the audience award for the realization of the program "We want to help", which helped to generate large donations for the victims of the flood disaster in Southeast Asia. In 2008 he was awarded the "Golden Romy".
Johannes B. Kerner is married to the former national hockey player Britta Becker and has two children. - Editor
