*Sir David Frederick Attenborough, OM, CH, CVO, CBE, FRS (born on May 8, 1926 in London, England) is one of the world’s best known broadcasters and naturalists. Widely considered one of the pioneers of the nature documentary, he has written and presented eight major series (with a ninth in production) surveying nearly every aspect of life on Earth. He is also a former senior manager at the BBC, having served as controller of BBC2 and director of programming for BBC Television in the 1960s and 1970s.
He is the younger brother of director and actor Richard Attenborough. [More]

On 22 September 2003 Sir David Attenborough was interviewed by ABC Australia’s Andrew Denton via satellite:
‘I dug a horrid beast on TV’; ‘doubting earth advisor’: these are two anagrams you can make out of my next guest’s name, and both are appropriate. For 50 years, he’s been broadcasting into our homes and showing us a world we can scarcely believe our own. His face is recognisable to billions of people. Please welcome a man who makes you think that, well, maybe human beings aren’t so bad after all – Sir David Attenborough. [Continued]
