Mike Wolfe Bio; Age, Family
Mike of age 56 was born on 11 June 1964 in Joliet, Illinois, United States. He is the oldest of three children of American parents. His parents divorced when he was two years old and he was raised by single mother Rita Wolfe.
His mother moved with the family to Iowa when he was in the fourth grade. She worked at the Rock Island Arsenal to raise her family. He grew up alongside younger siblings; a brother Robbie Wolfe, and a sister named Beth Wolfe.
Mike began searching for hidden treasure at the early age of four. He pulled an old bicycle out of his neighbor’s trash and sold it after cleaning it up to another kid for $5, which was his first profitable flip.
Wolfe has been working as a professional picker for more than two decades. Moreover, he owned two different bike stores in Iowa during the 1990s: The Village Bike Shop in East Davenport and a store in Eldridge, Iowa.
Since January 2010, he has been running the reality show American Pickers on The History Channel. The show stars him alongside Frank Fritz, and Danielle Colby and is one of the most successful reality shows on the History Channel. Besides, he owns and operates two locations of Antique Archaeology; in Le Claire, Iowa, and Nashville, Tennessee, where he sells treasures from the road and official American Picker merchandise.
