Born and raised in New Orleans, the rambunctious and relentless Richard Simmons overcame his own weight demons before heading west to smashing LA in 1973. Simmons quickly noticed that the land of plastic and silicon did not have anything to cater to the not-so-thin. As a result, Simmons took advantage of a glorious opportunity and consulted doctors and nutritionists alike in order to develop a program that was custom-made for overweight folks.
Adding the now famous Richard Simmons dash of humor and good fun, he has firmly turned himself into a fighter and proponent to grant equal access to weight-loss programs to all: the thin, the thick and the in-between. In the meantime, Richard has penned best-selling books, and made albums, cassettes and videos. A man of action, Richard Simmons also has the drive to personally contact 50 to 100 people a day to provide support and guidance, making hundreds of personal appearances every year. Simmons is recognized everywhere he goes, from the smallest city to the largest city, from The Tonight Show to the Late Show. He can inspire you and make you laugh, but most importantly, he will get you off of your butt and moving.
