About Burt
Burt Thakur was born in New Delhi, India and raised by his maternal grandparents, Jagdish and Indira. He came to America legally in pursuit of the American Dream in the late 1980s. Burt attended Valley Forge Military Academy and, at 17, Burt enlisted in the US Navy.
He earned his American citizenship while serving on the aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman, where he operated nuclear reactors. After his service, Burt worked in operations and management for power generation. He is now an engineering project manager and works in the construction process for building large data centers. He lives in Frisco, with his wife, and envisions a better future for ALL Americans.
Burt received national attention as a Jeopardy! champion, during host Alex Trebek’s final season, when he shared his personal story of learning English at a young age by watching the show with his grandfather. Burt’s moving story inspired and reminded countless Americans of the importance and impact of empathy, family, and the American Dream.
