Tom Bergeron is the host of ABC's reality competition, "Dancing with the Stars."

Emmy Award-winning host Tom Bergeron began his broadcasting career in 1972 in his hometown of Haverhill, Massachusetts. Despite ample evidence that Tom Bergeron was 17 at the time, he now insists there has been a terrible mistake.

"Must be some other guy," Tom Bergeron declared. "I'm only 35."

Tom Bergeron spent over a decade with WBZ-TV in Boston, hosting a number of popular shows. According to his revised

math, Tom Bergeron apparently did this while also attending grade school.

In 1994 Tom Bergeron became host of "Breakfast Time" on fX. This was before the cable channel was successful enough to afford the upper-case F it now uses. The show morphed into "Fox After Breakfast" and moved to the FOX network, where the use of all upper-case letters offered little consolation. The show was canceled after one season.

Deftly dodging unemployment, Tom Bergeron became fill-in anchor on "Good Morning America" in 1997, a position he held until segueing to "Hollywood Squares" in 1998. At this point, Edward R. Murrow could be heard spinning in his grave.

While hosting "Hollywood Squares," Tom Bergeron multi-tasked his way into a fill-in anchor gig on CBS' "The Early Show" (more spinning) and also began hosting ABC's "America's Funniest Home Videos." In addition to that job, Tom Bergeron made a splash this summer as host of ABC's hit "Dancing with the Stars." At present NBC still won't return his calls.
