Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is the 45th and current president of the United States. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality. Trump was born and raised in the New York City borough of Queens, and received a bachelor's degree in economics from the Wharton School. He took charge of his family's real-estate business in 1971, renamed it The Trump Organization, and expanded its operations from Queens and Brooklyn into Manhattan.
The company built or renovated skyscrapers, hotels, casinos, and golf courses. Trump later started various side ventures, mostly by licensing his name. He owned the Miss Universe and Miss USA beauty pageants from 1996 to 2015, and produced and hosted The Apprentice, a reality television show, from 2003 to 2015. Forbes estimates his net worth to be $3.1 billion.
A film and TV welfare association has been launched in the wake of the tragic death of John Balson. Screendog Head of Production and Welfare Fiona Fletcher, Jude Spencer, the founder of Dolly Mental Health, and psychologist Howie Fine are behind the new initiative, which has sprung up swiftly following this week’s devastating news.
With the continuing rise in demand for true crime and reality TV, the initiative will address issues surrounding duty of care and welfare in the industry.

The association also called for more duty of care training, welfare producers and conversations with regulators. As the Film and TV Welfare Association (FTWVA) prepares for its official launch in September, it is inviting broadcasters, streamers and industry leaders to join the initiative and email: info@ftvwa.org.
