Jean-Pierre Foucault is celebrating his 78th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed television hosts of his generation.
Popular television host Jean-Pierre Foucault (Sacrée Soirée, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 78th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.
Foucault, a cultural icon
Born in Marseille on November 23, 1947, Jean-Pierre Foucault's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in French history. Foucault's not just a great television host, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Jean-Pierre hasn't done.
And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Jean-Pierre Foucault as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 78.
Happy Birthday, Jean-Pierre, you're the best!
