Brad Rutter Biography

Brad Rutter is an American game show contestant, TV host, producer, and actor who was born on January 31, 1978, in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, the United States as Bradford Gates Rutter. With over $5.1 million in winnings, Rutter is currently the 2nd highest-earning American game show contestant of all time, behind Ken Jennings, as well as still the highest-earning contestant (primarily from special tournament events) on the U.S. syndicated game show Jeopardy! (with over $5 million).

Until Jeopardy! The Greatest of All Time in 2020, he had never lost a Jeopardy! match against a human opponent (though Rutter twice trailed at the end of the first game of a two-day tournament match before coming back to win). This streak comprised his original 5-day run in 2000, and 17 matches in five tournaments—all of which Rutter (or his team) won.

In the year 2011, both Rutter and Ken Jennings (another holder, at various times, of the all-time money record for Jeopardy! as well as for game shows) were routed in a two-day exhibition match against an IBM computer platform developed specifically to compete on Jeopardy!: Watson.

He finished third in the match—both his first defeat overall and the first time he finished behind a human opponent. Due to the man versus machine match being declared an exhibition, none of the records from it count toward official show records.
