Political career
Atienza has been in politics for twelve years. From 1995 to 2004, he served as councilor of the 5th district of Manila for three terms. One of his notable resolutions that he filed to the city council is the resolution in 1998 declaring actress Claire Danes as persona non grata and banning her films after Danes criticized the state of Manila's cleanliness. In 2004, he ran as representative of the 5th District of Manila but lost to Joey Hizon. His father, former Manila Mayor Lito Atienza, asked him in 2007 to run as Mayor of Manila but he declined and then he retired thinking that politics is scary.
Radio and television career
He started his broadcasting career in the early 1990s, as the anchor of "Mata ng Agila", a early morning newscast of DZEC Radyo Agila 1062, together with Onin Miranda.
Atienza started his stint on TV when he began hosting Magandang Umaga, Pilipinas's Animalandia as well as voice acting in the 90's. He is also best known for voicing Takeru (renamed as Michael Joe) which is portrayed by Japanese Sentai actor Ryousuke Kaizu from the Super Sentai series, Hikari Sentai Maskman and he also references this in later years when he was being interviewed by fellow celebrity hosts.
He soon was tracking weather until he became the resident weatherman of TV Patrol replacing Ernie Baron who died.
He left the early morning show, Umagang Kay Ganda in 2009 to host the late morning variety show Showtime (now called It's Showtime). He began hosting Matanglawin (Hawkeye) on March 24, 2008.
Personal life
A father of three (Jose III, Eliana and Emman), Atienza is married to Felicia Hung, President and Founding Member of Chinese International School Manila (CISM). Kim Atienza is an avid marathoner, triathlete and cyclist. Politician Lito Atienza is Atienza's father while another politician, Ali Atienza, is his brother.
Atienza had a mild stroke in 2010 and 2014. In 2013, he was hospitalized for almost a week and was diagnosed to have Guillain–Barré syndrome, a rare disease that attacks the nervous system due to a virus or bacterial infection.
