Time Out, the weekly, guide book company and site that calls itself the "guide to what's happening in the most exciting cities on the planet," discovered Milwaukee recently as its Chicago bureau posted an extensive featured called "Road Trips: Milwaukee's best."
It's a great piece and features twelve stories/guides from "Milwaukee music clubs" to "Milwaukee Summerfest vs. Taste of Chicago." Their verdict: "Taste for food, Summerfest for music." I say, Summerfest for both!
Time Out, if you were wondering, doesn't have a Milwaukee edition.
The feature, posted June 8, mentions many Brew City favorites and people. Read it here.
A life-long and passionate community leader and Milwaukeean, Jeff Sherman is a co-founder of OnMilwaukee.
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.
Early in his career, Sherman was one of youngest members of the Greater Milwaukee Committee, and currently is involved in numerous civic and community groups - including board positions at The Wisconsin Center District, Wisconsin Club and Marcus Center for the Performing Arts. He's honored to have been named to The Business Journal's "30 under 30" and Milwaukee Magazine's "35 under 35" lists.
He owns a condo in Downtown and lives in greater Milwaukee with his wife Stephanie, his son, Jake, and daughter Pierce. He's a political, music, sports and news junkie and 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 each and every day.
