To talk about his personal life, Chris has a wife and 2 children. They now live in Connecticut. You might think how rich is Chris Hansen? Well, Chris’ net worth is more than $2.5 million. The main source of this sum of money is of course his work as a journalist. There is a possibility that this number will change in the future.

Christopher Edward Hansen, better known to the world as Chris Hansen, was born in 1959 in Michigan. Hansen has revealed that the one thing that inspired him to choose working as a journalist was the investigation of Jimmy Hoffa’s disappearance. Chris studied at Michigan State University College of Communication Arts and Sciences, where he received a degree in telecommunications. When Hansen was still studying at Michigan State University he started to work at “Lansing NBC”. Later he also worked in “WFLA”, “WDIV” and other television stations. This was the time when Chris Hansen’s net worth began to grow. In 1993 Chris became a part of “NBC News”, where he worked as a correspondent in “Now with Tom Brokaw and Katie Couric”.

As mentioned before, one of the main sources of Hansen’s net worth is his career in “Dateline NBC”. While working there Chris had an opportunity to cover such events as the terrorist attack in Oklahoma City, the Columbine massacre, the disaster of TWA Flight 800 and other important events. In addition to this, Chris is also known for the segment he was responsible for in “Dateline NBC”, called “To Catch a Predator”. This segment was very popular among viewers and added to Chris Hansen’s net worth a lot. Other shows that Chris appeared in include “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno”, “The Adam Carolla Show”, “The Oprah Winfrey Show”, “Diggnation” and many others. All these appearances made Chri’s net worth higher. What is more, Chris has also released a book entitled “To Catch a Predator: Protecting Your Kids form Online Enemies in Your Home”.

Lastly, one can say that Chris Hansen is probably one of the most famous journalists in the industry. During his career, Chris has had an opportunity to gain a lot of experience and he has also been acclaimed by other people. The best proof for this acclaim is a long list of the awards that Hansen has received. Although in 2013 Hansen left the NBC, he will probably still continue working as a journalist in other companies. Even if he does not continue his career, he will still be remembered as one of the bests.

The company is mostly known for its activities in viral video production as well as social media marketing. Heyman employed award winning NYC ad executive Mitchell K.
