DONALD TRUMP
Executive Producer/Host
A schoolboy's dream…a competitor's challenge. Donald J. Trump is the very definition of the American success story, continually setting the standards of excellence while expanding his interests in real estate, gaming, sports, and entertainment. He is the archetypal businessman – a deal-maker without peer and an ardent philanthropist.
In January of 2004, Trump joined forces with Mark Burnett Productions and NBC to produce and star in the television reality show, "The Apprentice." This quickly became the #1 new show on television last year, made history in ratings and has received great reviews. Few shows have garnered the worldwide attention of "The Apprentice." Trump has signed to continue in this role for the 2004-05 television season.
Trump started his business career in an office he shared with his father in Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn, New York. He worked with his father for five years, where they were busy making deals together. Trump has been quoted as saying, "My father was my mentor, and I learned a tremendous amount about every aspect of the construction industry from him." Likewise, Fred C. Trump often stated that, "some of my best deals were made by my son, Donald... everything he seems to touch turns to gold." Trump then entered the very different world of Manhattan real estate.
In New York City, the Trump signature is synonymous with the most prestigious of addresses. Among them are the world-renowned Fifth Avenue skyscraper, Trump Tower (where Asprey has just signed a lease paying the highest square foot rent anywhere in the world), and the luxury residential buildings, Trump Parc, Trump Palace (the tallest building on the East Side of Manhattan), Trump Plaza, 610 Park Avenue, The Trump World Tower and Trump Park Avenue. Trump was also responsible for the designation and construction of the Jacob Javits Convention Center on land controlled by him, known as the West 34th Street Railroad Yards, and the total exterior restoration of the Grand Central Terminal as part of his conversion of the Commodore Hotel into the Grand Hyatt Hotel.
