Jeff Sherman RSS Feed Twitter Feed

A life-long and passionate Milwaukeean, Jeff Sherman is the president and a co-owner of OnMilwaukee.com.

He grew up in Wauwatosa and graduated from Marquette University, as a Warrior. He holds an MBA from Cardinal Stritch University, and is the founding president of Young Professionals of Milwaukee (YPM)/Fuel Milwaukee, one of youngest members of the Greater Milwaukee Committee and involved in numerous civic and community groups.

He lives Downtown with his wife Stephanie (who co-owns Lela in the Historic Third Ward) and his son, Jake, and is a political, music, sports and news junkie. He thinks, for what it's worth, that all new movies should be released in theaters, on demand, online and on DVD simultaneously.

He also  thinks you should read OnMilwaukee.com each and every day.
