Where were you born? I was born in Detroit, Michigan in 1951, and graduated from Grosse Pointe High School in 1969, then earned my BBA degree in Finance from Western Michigan University in 1973.

What was your first job? I played music in bands from 1968-1978 and was paid professionally for doing something that I loved. My first full time job was as a Credit Analyst in the Commercial Loan division of Michigan National Bank of Detroit in downtown Detroit.

Most important lesson that you've learned in business? Be careful who you trust. Always do the right thing in daily business, even in the face of negative consequences. As my Dad said, "no matter what happens in life you always need to be able to look yourself in the mirror and be square with yourself and God." It's true.

Career mentor? One of my mentors for career and life is Dr. Stephen Covey. I learned many things about being principle centered and teaching others about timeless principles.

What did you want to be when you grew up? A good business leader in the community, a good family man, and an active person doing many things.

Marc's Big Boy hamburgers to make a comeback at Mequon event

MEQUON - Two patties, an extra slice of bun in the middle and secret sauce.

Many Milwaukee-area residents fondly remember Big Boy hamburgers. The last remaining Wisconsin Marc’s Big Boy restaurant closed its doors in 1995, but the famous burgers will soon be available again.

Ovation Sarah Chudnow, a Jewish faith-based senior living and care provider, is hosting a Big Boy Reunion on Wednesday, Aug. 9.

The evening includes a dinner of classic favorites — the Big Boy Burger, famous onion rings, fries and strawberry pie — along with a special presentation by guest speakers Steve and Greg Marcus. Greg Marcus is president and CEO and Steve Marcus is chairman of the board for The Marcus Corporation. For nearly 40 years the company operated more than 60 Big Boy restaurants in the Midwest.
