  • Bart F. de Graaff was an influential Dutch television presenter and creator, as well as the founder and chairman of the public broadcasting network BNN. Because of a car accident in his youth, Bart suffered from serious renal failure for most of his life. This also caused a growth disorder which made him look like a twelve-year old boy. In his career as a television presenter he often used this fact to his advantage. In 1997 he founded a public broadcasting network, Bart's News Network (BNN). After his death, it was renamed to Bart's Neverending Network. Targeted at a youthful audience, the network quickly became known for its sometimes provocative programming. At the end of 1997 Bart received a donor kidney and was for a time able to live a relatively normal life. In 1999 the kidney was rejected and his health deteriorated quickly. Bart De Graaff died in May 2002, 35 years old.
