Sylvain Augier

biography:
Sylvain Augier, born May 7, 1955 in Toulouse and died March 16, 2024 in Lecques, Gard, is a French television and radio host, journalist, and producer.

He grew up in the village of Forgues in Haute-Garonne, in a family steeped in Christian and humanist values, which marked his life through a special attention to others and a love of sharing. After obtaining his baccalaureate, Sylvain Augier continued his studies at the Toulouse Institute of Political Studies, graduating in 1976. He then moved to Paris to prepare for the ENA entrance exam, but abandoned this career despite being eligible. In 1978, he completed his national service as a volunteer in Nicaragua, an experience that fueled his curiosity about the world.

His media career began in 1979 at France Inter, where he worked as a journalist-reporter and hosted several programs until 1996, including "Oreillettes et Ventricules", "Interbulles", "Rendez-vous vous sont cernés" and "On ne vit que deux fois". At the end of the 1980s, he also presented the program "Chic Planète" on the same channel. Sylvain Augier made his first steps in television in the 1980s. In 1986, he co-hosted "Sexy Folies" on Antenne 2, then took over "La Une est à vous" on TF1 from 1987 to 1988. He then joined FR3 (now France 3) where he presented "Sports Loisirs" in 1988 and co-hosted the Téléthon on several occasions. But it was with the shows "Faut Pas Rêver" (1990-1999) and "La Carte Aux Trésors" (1996-2005) that he achieved widespread public recognition. "Faut Pas Rêver," created by Georges Pernoud, took him around the world, sharing his passion for discovery and encounters, while "La Carte aux trésors" became an iconic event in French heritage. On August 24, 1988, Sylvain Augier survived a serious paragliding accident in the Pyrenees, from which he suffered significant physical after-effects, a fact he discussed in his book "The Moment When Everything Tipped Over," published in 2008. After the release of "The Treasure Map" in 2005, he experienced periods of personal turmoil, which he evoked in his book "I Come Back from a Long Way," published in 2023, in which he recounts his struggle with illness and the support of his loved ones.

Alongside his audiovisual career, Sylvain Augier wrote several books, including "Babystoires: Splinters of Childhood, Splinters of Laughter" (1995), "Travel Diaries" (1999), "Doubt and Faith: Sylvain Augier Meets Sister Emmanuelle" (2009), and "Faut rêver" (2015). He also continued to host radio shows, including "Sylvain Augier en toute liberté" on Sud Radio in 2001, then "Les Trésors de la musique" on Radio Classique from 2011 to 2012, before returning to Sud Radio to present "Qu'est-ce qui vous fait courir?" from 2014 to 2017.

After retiring from the media in 2017, Sylvain Augier resided in Lecques, near Sommières in the Gard department. It was at his home that he died suddenly following a heart attack on March 16, 2024, at the age of 68. His funeral took place on March 28, 2024, in Sommières, leaving behind a profound impact on French public broadcasting, commemorated by the President of the Republic and millions of viewers who shared the beauty of the world with him.

Il a grandi dans le village de Forgues en Haute-Garonne, au sein d’une famille imprégnée de valeurs chrétiennes et humanistes, qui ont marqué toute sa vie par une attention particulière aux autres et le goût du partage. Après avoir obtenu son baccalauréat, Sylvain Augier poursuit des études à l’Institut d’études politiques de Toulouse, dont il sort diplômé en 1976. Il part alors à Paris pour préparer le concours de l’ENA, mais renonce à cette carrière malgré une admissibilité. En 1978, il effectue son service national comme coopérant au Nicaragua, une expérience qui nourrit sa curiosité du monde.

Sa carrière médiatique débute en 1979 à France Inter, où il occupe le poste de journaliste-reporter et anime plusieurs émissions jusqu’en 1996, dont « Oreillettes et Ventricules », « Interbulles », « Rendez-vous vous êtes cernés » et « On ne vit que deux fois ».

Mais c’est avec les émissions « Faut Pas Rêver » (1990-1999) et « La Carte Aux Trésors » (1996-2005) qu’il accède à une grande notoriété auprès du grand public. « Faut Pas Rêver », créé par Georges Pernoud, l’amène à voyager à travers le monde, partageant sa passion pour la découverte et la rencontre, tandis que « La Carte aux trésors » devient un rendez-vous emblématique du patrimoine français.

Le 24 août 1988, Sylvain Augier survit à un grave accident de parapente dans les Pyrénées, dont il garde des séquelles physiques importantes et dont il parlera dans son livre « L’instant où tout a basculé » paru en 2008. Après l’arrêt de « La Carte aux trésors » en 2005, il traverse des périodes de tourments personnels, qu’il évoque dans son ouvrage « Je reviens de loin » publié en 2023, où il raconte sa lutte contre la maladie et le soutien de ses proches.

Parallèlement à sa carrière audiovisuelle, Sylvain Augier écrit plusieurs livres, dont « Les Babystoires : Éclats d’enfance, éclats de rire » (1995), « Carnets de route » (1999), « Le doute et la foi : Sylvain Augier rencontre sœur Emmanuelle » (2009) et « Faut rêver » (2015).

biography:
Sylvain Augier, geboren am 7. Mai 1955 in Toulouse und gestorben am 16. März 2024 in Lecques, Gard, ist ein französischer Fernseh- und Radiomoderator, Journalist und Produzent.

Er wuchs im Dorf Forgues in der Haute-Garonne in einer Familie auf, die von christlichen und humanistischen Werten geprägt war. Dies prägte sein Leben durch besondere Aufmerksamkeit für andere und die Freude am Teilen. Nach dem Abitur setzte Sylvain Augier sein Studium am Institut für Politikwissenschaften in Toulouse fort und schloss es 1976 ab. Anschließend zog er nach Paris, um sich auf die Aufnahmeprüfung für die ENA vorzubereiten, gab diese Karriere jedoch trotz Zulassung auf. 1978 absolvierte er seinen Wehrdienst als Freiwilliger in Nicaragua, eine Erfahrung, die seine Neugier auf die Welt weckte.

Seine Medienkarriere begann 1979 bei France Inter, wo er als Journalist und Reporter arbeitete und bis 1996 verschiedene Sendungen moderierte, darunter „Oreillettes et Ventricules“, „Interbulles“, „Rendez-vous vous sont cernés“ und „On ne vit que deux fois“. Ende der 1980er Jahre präsentierte er auf demselben Kanal auch die Sendung „Chic Planète“. Sylvain Augier machte in den 1980er Jahren seine ersten Schritte im Fernsehen. 1986 war er Co-Moderator von „Sexy Folies“ auf Antenne 2 und übernahm dann von 1987 bis 1988 „La Une est à vous“ auf TF1. Anschließend wechselte er zu FR3 (heute France 3), wo er 1988 „Sports Loisirs“ moderierte und mehrmals Co-Moderator des Téléthon war. Doch erst mit den Shows „Faut Pas Rêver“ (1990–1999) und „La Carte aux Trésors“ (1996–2005) erlangte er große öffentliche Anerkennung. „Faut Pas Rêver“, kreiert von Georges Pernoud, führte ihn um die Welt und ließ ihn seine Leidenschaft für Entdeckungen und Begegnungen teilen, während „La Carte aux Trésors“ zu einem Kultereignis der französischen Kulturgeschichte wurde. Am 24. August 1988 überlebte Sylvain Augier einen schweren Gleitschirmunfall in den Pyrenäen, der ihn mit erheblichen körperlichen Folgen belastete. Diesen Umstand beschrieb er in seinem 2008 erschienenen Buch „Der Moment, als alles umkippte“. Nach der Veröffentlichung von „Die Schatzkarte“ im Jahr 2005 erlebte er Phasen persönlicher Turbulenzen, die er in seinem 2023 erschienenen Buch „Ich komme von einem langen Weg zurück“ verarbeitete. Darin schildert er seinen Kampf gegen die Krankheit und die Unterstützung seiner Angehörigen.

Neben seiner audiovisuellen Karriere schrieb Sylvain Augier mehrere Bücher, darunter „Babygeschichten: Splitter der Kindheit, Splitter des Lachens“ (1995), „Reisetagebücher“ (1999), „Zweifel und Glaube: Sylvain Augier trifft Schwester Emmanuelle“ (2009) und „Faut rêver“ (2015). Er moderierte außerdem weiterhin Radiosendungen, darunter „Sylvain Augier en toute liberté“ bei Sud Radio im Jahr 2001 und anschließend „Les Trésors de la musique“ bei Radio Classique von 2011 bis 2012, bevor er zu Sud Radio zurückkehrte, um von 2014 bis 2017 „Qu'est-ce qui vous fait courir?“ zu moderieren.

Nachdem er sich 2017 aus der Medienbranche zurückgezogen hatte, lebte Sylvain Augier in Lecques, in der Nähe von Sommières im Département Gard. Dort starb er am 16. März 2024 im Alter von 68 Jahren plötzlich an den Folgen eines Herzinfarkts. Seine Beerdigung fand am 28. März 2024 in Sommières.

David Raynolds

biography:
Hailing from Calgary, Canada, David Raynolds is a young, award-winning, multi-faceted performer of the highest caliber. From the age of 1, he was already singing and dancing, and by the age of 3, he had mastered the art of producing his own videos. For the next 3 years, he formally trained in the art of acting, and by the age of 6, with several independent productions under his belt, he had the honor of working with Helena Bonham Carter in 'The Young and Prodigious T.S. Spivet'. Because of the lasting impact Helena had made on young David, it was evident that his passion had become the pursuit of a career in film and television.

Looking to increase David's acting opportunities, his family moved to Vancouver when he was 7. He has had the honor of training with several prestigious acting teachers and coaches in the area, and a variety of high profile companies have utilized his skills in their advertisements. In the medium of television, David's screen credits include guest spots and recurring roles in notable series such as 'Falling Skies', 'Wayward Pines', 'Travelers', and 'Legends of Tomorrow'. As a highly sought-after voice actor, his talents have been featured in renowned series such as 'Lego Ninjago', 'Biklonz', and 'Ready! Jet Go'.

David's extensive talents extend beyond acting to the areas of singing, martial arts, and comedy. Thanks to his rich cultural heritage which consists of German, Hungarian, and Romanian roots, he also speaks two additional languages besides English--German and Romanian. As one who is a philanthropist at heart, David's desire is to help build orphanages and shelters for all of those in need, and he also has a genuine love for all animals. He longs to be a role model for other young people to emulate through the way he lives his life and the positive message he sends out to others in every performance he gives. As a young man on the precipice of stardom, his commitment to excellence and his spirit of humility and benevolence continue to put him on the path to making a lasting impact on all with whom he is privileged to interact.
