Jeremy Klaff entered the world on a warm spring day in 1977. Born to a history teacher (imagine that) and insurance saleswoman, he grew up in Plainview, NY. As a child, he was shy … very shy. In fact, he never really talked to anyone except for his stuffed animals, and the Mrs. Butterworth syrup bottle on the kitchen table. Indeed, as a young child, his imagination and creativity ran wild. As he grew older, Mr. Klaff discovered people. He actually made a lot of friends along the way, as people were drawn to his uniqueness. Mr. Klaff attended Plainview JFK HS on Long Island from 1991-1995. Looking back fondly on Mr. Klaff, one of his former teachers reminisces … "I hated that kid … he would always have some wise comment to say that would throw off my entire lesson. One day I hope he becomes a teacher, and the same thing happens to him!" Karma - Chapter 3, Section 2.

After graduating POBJFKHS, Mr. Klaff moved to upstate New York to attend Binghamton University. While there, he read a lot of history. He was recruited to run collegiate track and field, but as his college coach recalls, "That guy had no heart! He quit after the warm-up on the first day to run back to his dorm room and study history."

   So Mr. Klaff's illustrious track career ended. However, a new career was only beginning. Senior year, Mr. Klaff met Sethmates. The two realized they had radio rapport, and became the "Crowned Princes" of the Binghamton airwaves. From there, Mr. Klaff was noticed, and became the stadium announcer for the minor league Mets. There, he would interview ball players, eat a lot of hotdogs, and hang out with his good friend Rog. Things were going well for Mr. Klaff … but alas … it was time to get a full-time job. He packed up his clothes, degrees, and stuffed animals - and headed back to Long Island. As for Sethmates, he went to work for Vince McMahon and the WWF, writing storylines for RAW, and Smackdown on UPN.

   After teaching in an inner-city school for a month (where, by the way, his humor wasn't quite appreciated), Mr. Klaff got a call from Schreiber HS, in Port Washington. He threw on a jacket and tie, did a demo lesson on ancient Africa, and was hired to be a teacher and track coach.

   Although he had the dream teaching job, Mr. Klaff missed broadcasting and entertainment. Therefore, he decided to use his classroom as an outlet for the creativity he used in Binghamton. Between 2001-2002, he never left his house. All he did was make entertaining (yet educational) Powerpoints and lesson plans all day. He even taught himself guitar so he could write dozens upon dozens of history songs. Only eight months after picking up his first guitar, Mr. Klaff played on MTV while doing a standup bit with Jamie Foxx. Recalling that moment, one student remembers saying, "!@*?!*%#!!! That's my *%$##**! history teacher on M *!?!*! TV!!!!" Jamie Foxx later won an Academy Award ... Jeremy Klaff topped that performance by meeting another Jeremy Klaff in Texas.

  Mr. Klaff still does some entertaining and writing on the side. In 2004, he came back to stadium announcing, as the field announcer for the Brooklyn Cyclones -- the hottest ticket in all of minor league baseball. 

The new frontier for Mr. Klaff? WDOT Studios ... the new internet radio station which debuted in the spring of 2006. Starting that Fall, Mr. Klaff began teaching a radio course, warning his DJs of all the dirty words they can never say on the air.

In 2005, Mr. Klaff got married, and often begs his wife to take pictures of him in front of historical sites. For the most part though, he stays in the classroom, in the radio studio, and on the track. By using his uniqueness for good, rather than evil, he hopes to save the world one day, and become the 50th President of the United States of America.
