Born in Haifa, Israel in 1949 named Chaim Witz, when Gene was just eight years old, his mother decided to move to the United States. They settled in New York City, and she felt that he needed to have a name that sounded more American, so she changed his name to Eugene Klein.

Simmons co-founded KISS, America’s #1 Gold Record Award Winning Group of all time, in all categories (RIAA). KISS also boasted over 3,000 licensed/merchandise items and in 2014 was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Simmons film and television accolades include the film titled “Detroit Rock City.” Simmons went on to create a reality television show, where he starred alongside his wife, daughter, and son in the series “Gene Simmons: Family Jewels.” With a fortune at his disposal, he could do anything that he wants.
