Tony began his incredible journey in a traditional Jewish household in New York.

After Graduating from Harper College he starts on his esteemed career in 1970. His unique and clever way he presents his work is admirable at best. His columns are notoriously known for their sarcastic, humorous overtones. His comments have a tendency to be racy, offensive, and sometimes downright mean. His following is colossally massive. He talks they listen, faithfully. Radio as well as television is a dog eats dog business. You have to stand out from the rest of the pack. Tony Kornheiser has accomplished that ten times over. He is a radio icon in his own right.

Tony has made more than few enemies in his time. He was once suspended for some corrosive comments he made about Hannah Storm.

A lot of times in life that alone can get you in trouble. In his personal life outside of the spotlight, he seems like he is the best husband and father. You cannot mistake his brilliance for anything else but; exactly that. He keeps the streets talking and he most definitely has no problem talking right back.

Currently; he exists in in Washington D.C. and Rehoboth Beach Delaware through his wife Kerril. Mutually they have two children Michael as well as Elizabeth.
