Life and Work

Origin and Education

Lanz comes from Geiselberg in South Tyrol, a fraction ("frazione"), of the community of Olang. As a high school student he lived in the dormitory of the monastery "Neustift". During this time, from 1983 to 1984, he attended the classical high school at the "Vinzentinum" in Brixen. After his graduation in Bruneck in 1988, he was trained as a radio operator in the Italian army and served in the "Alpini" (mountain troops). Besides Markus Lanz worked at "Radio Holiday" in Bruneck. In the academic year 1991/1992, he completed a school education as Master of communications at the Bavarian Academy for Advertising and Marketing in Munich.

Beginnings in Media

From 1992, Lanz completed a two-year traineeship at "Radio Hamburg". In protest at the French nuclear tests in Murora, he published the single "F...! Chirac" together with Marzel Becker and Stephan Heller as "Le camembert radioactif" in 1995. In the same year, he became a news presenter for RTL Nord. From 1997 on, Lanz hosted the broadcast "Guten Abend RTL" (good evening RTL), in Schleswig-Holstein.

Breakthrough at RTL

Lanz made the breakthrough, when he stepped in from September 1998 to March 1999 for Barbara Eligmann during her maternity as host of the RTL program "Explosiv - Das Magazin" (Explosive - the magazine). From April 1999 until 15 March 2008, he regularly hosted the show and was its editorial director since November 2004. In addition, Lanz hosted other RTL broadcasts such as "Der Hochzeitsplan" (the wedding plan), "Outback" and "Ich bin ein Star - Holt mich hier raus! - Spezial" (I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! - special).

Together with the TV chief Horst Lichter, he wrote his biography, published in 2007.
