His dad is Jewish. His mom is Puerto Rican.
He attended college as Gerald King, which is his real name.
When it became the "in thing" to be Hispanic he changed his stage name to "Geraldo Rivera" by changing Gerald to Geraldo and using his mom's maiden name now.....not that there's anything wrong with that.
I See hey guys I just hear that Sky news got knock off the air from Iraq according to another Freeper from the UK they just temporality using their US cousin Fox news get coverage
That what I thought about Geraldo Half Jewish and Half Puebto Ricoian I just confused on that
Mr. Kotter: "A Puerto Rican Jew?"
Epstein: "Yeah. While one half of my family as out stealing pants the other half was altering them."
I've read many times that his real name is Jerry Rivers. Is that a joke?
El Gran, its the other way around, Geraldo's mother is Jewish and his father was Puerto Rican.
Egads, there is Susan Estrich. Yuk!
