Jacques Peretti

Jacques Peretti has been involved in almost every aspect of television over the course of his career. His What Really Happened documentaries demonstrated his journalistic tenacity in rooting out the truth behind some of the biggest media stories to consume the public interest. His most recent investigation exposed the man beneath the myths surrounding Michael Jackson following his death in 2009.

As adept at producing as he is presenting, Jacques worked on both sides of the camera for his series The Art Show through which he opened up the world of contemporary art through a series of short, provocative and thoroughly individual films for Channel 4.
