Fred Grandy Biography

Fredrick Grandy is an American actor who played "Gopher" on the sitcom The Love Boat and who later became a member of the United States House of Representatives from the state of Iowa. Grandy was most recently the host of The Grandy Group, a morning drive time radio talk show on 630 WMAL in Washington, D.C.

He had an eight-year career in the U.S. House of Representatives, which established Grandy as one of the most respected, well-spoken, and well-liked members of Congress on either side of the political aisle. From Congress, he went on to Goodwill Industries and then left to become a popular political commentator. He joined the Washington-based Center for Security Policy as a senior fellow developing and managing projects on domestic terrorism and counter intelligence.

Fred Grandy Speaking Topics

  • Political Outlook.

    Fred Grandy presents opinion, analysis, and observations about the biggest political stories of the day. A former member of Congress, Grandy is the host of the most buzzed about radio show in Washington, DC, The Grandy Group on WMAL. Grandy breaks down the political banter on issues, elections, and the economy with the same natural repartee and off-the-cuff commentary that make him a popular radio talk show host.

  • Doing Well and Doing Good: Serving Something Larger Than Ourselves.

    Having spent five years working as the CEO of Goodwill Industries, Fred Grandy knows the impact that people can have on each other and on the world. His efforts and guidance on a personal, as well as on a public, mission of charity and benevolence shape this touching lecture. From a life that has seen tremendous public success, yet has been tempered by private tragedy, and personal injury, Fred Grandy conveys a message about community service and the importance of giving back that is at once funny, poignant, and pertinent to the times in which we live.

  • There Is Nothing Wrong With Washington That Hollywood Can’t Fix.

    A veteran of both Hollywood and Congress, Fred Grandy looks at the dysfunction of Washington through the (sometimes distorted) lens of the City of Angels. Both center on the need for a good story – it is as important for making laws as it is for making movies. Discussing issues like the roll of gerrymandering and money in elections and the degradation of the American financial system and the resulting damage to our economy, he looks at what the Beltway crowd can learn from those behind the camera. With entertaining tales from his life as both a Hollywood and Washington insider, Grandy applies the lessons of show business to Beltway politics to help solve some of our nation’s most pressing problems.
