Reginald Roy "Reg" Grundy, AC, OBE (born 4 August 1923) is an Australian entrepreneur, and media and television mogul, one of the most successful of his generation.
Early life
He was the only child born to Roy Grundy and Lillian Lees. Before his career in television, he served in the Australian Army during World War II as a Sergeant stationed in Sydney.
The Reg Grundy Organisation (later the Grundy Organisation, then Grundy Television and known informally as Grundy's) was an Australiantelevisionproduction company founded in 1959 by businessman Reg Grundy. It later branched out into Europe and the USA. The company first produced game shows, then branched into soap operas in 1973. In 1995 Reg Grundy sold the company to Pearson Television, which has since become known as FremantleMedia and is part of the RTL Group (in turn 90% owned by Bertelsmann). In 2006 FremantleMedia merged Grundy Television and Crackerjack Productions to form FremantleMedia Australia. Until 2013 the name Grundy still existed in Germany as Grundy Light Entertainment and in Italy as Grundy Productions Italy.
History
After success in radio, the Reg Grundy Organisation's first TV production was Wheel of Fortune which launched on Nine Network in 1959. Another show with this title celebrated its 25th anniversary in Australia, a week before its cancellation in July 2006.
At the age of 92, Reg Grundy passed away. Many shows become international top sellers, including the likes of 'Neighbours', 'Sons & Daughters', 'Prisoner Cell Block H', 'The Young Doctors' and many more.

Reg Grundy's Wheel Of Fortune 1959
A rare excerpt of the game show "Reg Grundy's Wheel Of Fortune" from 1959. Looks a bit similar to Wheel Of Fortune as most knew it in the 80s, 90s and 2000s but different format.
