Life of David Muir
Who is David Muir
Since I first saw David Muir on television I’ve had a crush on me. David Jason Muir is a 47-year-old journalist on ABC. He is about 6 feet and nicely built. David was born on November 9, 1973, in Syracuse, New York but grew up in Onondaga Hill. His parents are Pat Mills and Ronald Muir. David Muir’s ethnicity is mixed with English, Irish, and other backgrounds. He has one older sister named Rebecca and two step-siblings.
From my personal experience, the typical boy would play in the playground and play video games. However, David was a special kid. From an early age, he was interested in journalism. In an interview on Syracuse.com he mentioned that his father and father would drive him to television studios during his summer vacation or summer breaks. In the interview, he said, “When most kids go off to do another thing, I remember just begging them to take me to that TV station…” Almost every day David would watch the 6 pm news. As a preteen, he would even pretend to be a reporter on ABC News. David loved journalism and he even dressed up as a reporter for Halloween. That just spoke his destiny.
Being that David loved journalism so much he went to school for it. He attended Ithaca College and graduated with a degree in journalism. From there he would go on to be an amazing journalist.
Start of David Muir’s career
David first worked as a reporter at WTVH-TV (Channel 5) from 1995 to about 2000. While he was there he covered some interesting stories and traveled all over the world including Florida and the Middle East. What I admired about David and other journalists, in general, is that they are willing to travel to safe territories in order to let the world goes on in those places. That takes a lot of courage.
In 2000 David left WTVH-TV and worked as a reporter for WCVB in Boston. During his time there he spoke about the September 11 attack at the World Trade Center. He did such a good job of the report that he was given the regional Edward R Murray award. This is a special award given to leaders in the communication industry.
By grinding in his career he became highly recognized. He even won an award for the best reporter in only the first year he worked as a journalist. Now, that’s something to be proud of.
Despite the recognition he had at WTVH-TV there was something missing. David has his head to the sky. No shade to WTVH-TV he wanted to become a reporter on a bigger scale. David continued to grind and eventually landed a job at ABC News. He became a presenter on of my favorite tv shows, 2020.
Peak of David Muir’s Career
As I mentioned above David Muir reached the peak of his career when he became an anchor on ABC News, my favorite news station. The news is very informative and doesn’t seem as bias as other news stations. Furthermore, there are a lot of attractive reporters on ABC News(Thomas Llamas who is married to Jennifer Llamas is one of them but left ABC News in January).
David Muir replaced Diane Sawyer as anchor of ABC News. He was only there for 7 months but was a shining star there. I love Diane Sawyer since she keeps it raw and real. But seeing David Muir as an anchor was a good sight to see. David even helped boost the rankings. In 2015 ABC News became the country’s most-watched newscast. The anchors of ABC News World News Now are Kenneth Moton and Mona Kosar Abdi.
Gay rumor about David Muir
Just giving a disclaimer. I’m not saying David Muir is gay or not because I don’t know him. I’ll just be talking about the gay rumor. Just like many other male celebrities, David Muir has been the target of gay rumors. Back in 2014, there was a rumor that he was in a relationship with Gio Benitez who also works on ABC. The news started after they were photographed together. However, Gio was actually in a same-sex relationship with his boyfriend Tommy DiDario. There’s even been gossip about David being at gay bars in New York City. Being that there’s been no information on whether or not David had a wife or girlfriend.
Is David Muir married or does he have a partner?
It’s often asked, “Who is David Muir partner?” Does Like many other celebrities, David has kept his private life under wraps which makes perfect sense. There is no telling if he’s married, single or in a relationship.
Interesting things about David Muir
David Muir is a great journalist. There’s no denying that. Another interesting thing about David is that he’s fluent in Spanish. He learned that language after doing a study abroad while in school. And there’s proof. In 2015 he interviewed Pope Francis during a town hall meeting. The Pope is considered to be a very important figure so that was a big moment.
Some of you may give a frown but he was the first journalist to interview Trump after he was inaugurated. I understand that you may not like Trump at all. However, being the first reporter to interview is an accomplishment being that he was a US President.
Another fascinating fact about David is that he gives back to his alma mater. In 201 he delivered a commencement speech at Ithaca. He’s even mentored students there. Being an influential figure he shows humility. My guy!
Other ABC journalists worth mentioning
Gio Benitez
Gio Benitez is another journalist on ABC. He is openly gay and is married to Tommy DiDario. He started working in the journalism field when he was 17 years old and became a journalist on ABC in 2013. Like David Muir, Gio is eye candy.
Robin Roberts
If you haven’t heard of Robin Roberts shame on you. She’s been in the radio and television industry for more than 25 years. During her career, she’s done remarkable work liking covering President Obama’s inauguration.
Wrap up

What matters is his character and spirit. And David Muir seems to be an exceptional person. For one thing, he is an accomplished journalist and is one of my favorite journalists; I also enjoy hearing reports from Lester Holt, a 62-year-old journalist, and Natalie Morales, who left the Today Show after 22 years to pursue other opportunities. From an early age, he’s had a passion for journalist and is at the peak of his career. Not only has he made progress in his career he has given back to the community by mentoring students at his alma mater.
