At the age of 15 while growing up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Lois knew she was destined to be producer/director. What she didn’t know was that over the next 40 years she would stay in Milwaukee and produce and direct content in every industry sector: corporate, non-profit, education, healthcare, and her favorite, broadcast TV. For the past 15 years she teamed up with comedian/actor John McGivern and created the number one local PBS show in the country, and was awarded two Emmy's for her effort. (Yes, regional Emmy's still count!) She is currently producing and directing John McGivern's Main Streets, a Midwest travel show, airing on PBS. She lives in Wisconsin with her husband and kids, and works with a great production company in Milwaukee, Plum Media.
