Thinking about decorating your home but the thought makes you
break out in a cold sweat? Take tips from the experts (page 80) for find-
ing an interior designer that’s right for you.
Although the anticipation of spring may be the first thing on our
minds, Mother Nature can still be very unpredictable during this season.
To that end, we share 10 ideas (page 20) on how to beat cabin fever —
and stay warm and dry in the process.
Maybe you’re looking for a little more outdoor adventure, and hit-
ting the pavement on a bicycle is what you had in mind. Four local bike
shops unveil the latest in bicycles, from cruisers to high-tech rides for the
serious athlete (page 34).
Whatever adventure awaits you, remember spring is a time of rebirth
and fresh starts — whether it’s from the comforts of your home or out on
the open road.
The Power of Place

14 M | April 2011
A
t what point does a house become a home?
For many it’s the moment we fill it with personal possessions,
claiming the space as our own.
It’s all about the power of place, and how you define yourself
through your own sense of style. It’s more than placing furniture and
adding accessories. The atmosphere is created through your daily ritu-
als, and entertaining family and friends.
And as editors we look forward to the Home and Garden Issue, when
we are able to showcase some of our new favorite projects. There’s the
newly built home in Mequon that capitalizes on its natural setting (page
90), an art collector’s loft in the Third Ward (page 97), and the high-rise
sophistication of a downtown condo dripping with glamour (page 74).
But part of home is also the land that encompasses it. Check out one
couple’s interpretation of its rural landscape (page 83).

10 things to Appreciate in April
T.S. Elliot called April the cruelest month. Edna
St. Vincent Millay said it was for idiots. That Shelly
dude said something profound about showers and
May flowers.
Here’s something more to look forward to in
April:
“This sport is designed to break your heart. The
game begins in the spring, when everything is
new again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling
the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as
the chill rains come, it stops, and leaves you to face
the winter alone.” — Baseball’s late Commissioner
A. Bart Giamatti
There’s nothing wrong with April, the month —
not the person who cuts my hair, but we don’t
have time to get into that now either. That should
probably be a separate column …
Anyway, it’s all how you deal with it. You can
complain because roses have thorns, or you can
rejoice because thorns have roses. For those of you
who don’t get that, try substituting suds and beer.
April can be a great month in this great city:
1. The Brewers are still in first place.
2. Bobby G. doesn’t come out of hibernation for
two more weeks.
3. It’s a particularly good month for romance in
Milwaukee, but then so are July, September, Octo-
ber, November, May, March, June, December and
August. That’s what I read in some magazine, any-
way. It probably has something to do with our new
website, the Fonzie statue, Jordan’s recent trip to
Fashion Week in New York, Holi Parker’s mysteri-
ous disappearance at the last meeting of the Man-
ly Men’s/Girl Haters Club at Ernie’s, and the Dan
Brown conspiracy theory connection between
these seemingly random events.
4. A Men’s Health poll indicates we’re less
“pissed off” than most other places in the country.
It undoubtedly has something to do with Sprecher
beer and Tomaso’s pizza. Scott Walker moving to
Madison didn’t hurt either. (Before you call, please
be aware there are two ways to interpret that last
statement.)
5. My friend Gonzo, who spends the winter in
Arizona, comes back this month. (Oh, wait. That
entry actually belongs on the “Great Things About
Winter” list. It may also be a key component of
No. 4.)
6. My younger friend Jerry likes to depart from
our health club some mornings by telling me he
has to get off to work to pay for my impending
Social Security. April 15 is your day, buddy. Keep
my retirement fund growing. Next month we’ll see
if you can take a half-day off on a Sunday. No
promises! But, maybe, just maybe …
7. I store my Porsche for the winter. I could take
it for a drive if the battery wasn’t dead, and I move
six garbage cans, a snow blower, all the lawn fur-
niture that goes on the deck and patio, two bikes,
a large bucket of balls, bats, skates and rodents,
three bags of lawn fertilizer, some kind of soc-
cer net and my daughter’s Volvo, which also has a
dead battery and is parked behind it. Maybe next
month …
8. I won’t have to hear, “Is it cold enough for ya?”
until at least October.
9. More terrifying than Stephen King’s latest
1,000-pager, this is our Home and Garden Issue.
While zombies, werewolves and things that go
bump in the night may leave you scared spitless,
it’s landscaping, gardening, fertilizing, pruning
and lawn mowing that give me nightmares, also
known as “the willies” if you live in Cedarburg.
Luckily, it’s too cold this month to worry about
those lost episodes of “True Blood”-type chores.
Instead, we can focus on the NCAA tournament,
baseball and the couch.
10. Fran, our art director, is telling me my column
is too long, and I need to cut it. Anyway, the abso-
lutely very best thing about April in Milwaukee is

Get Rollin’
Hop on the seat and hit the road
this spring for a little outdoor recre-
ation. There are miles of paved and
unpaved trails throughout the Metro
Milwaukee area. If you need a little
extra oompf for getting up that big hill,
try Trek’s Ride + electric assist bike,
available at Wheel and Sprocket’s Mil-
waukee area locations for $2,529.99.
It comes with its own battery and an

Short Take
Jane Dawson teaches
women how to feel safe.
Shields suffers from macular degeneration,
a condition that has left him legally blind. He
was stricken with the disease when he was
working in western South Dakota with the
Pine Ridge Reservation in the early 1990s.
“So it became more and more problematic
for me to exist out there with declining vi-
sion,” Shields says. “I couldn’t drive.”
After spending three months of sabbati-
cal time studying Spanish in Guatemala in
1996, his superiors brought him to Milwau-
kee, where he worked at St. Patrick Parish
at 7th and Washington streets. In the course
of working with the Latino community on
the South Side, it became clear to Shields
they lacked a place to gather for workshops,
retreats or conferences.
It was then that Shields had a vision for
an abandoned, vandalized building, now
home to the center. Although the 115-year-
old building was a wreck, it still had strong
bones, he says. “I would take people around
and I would say, ‘We can do this here, that
there,’” he says. “I had more than one per-
son say they couldn’t believe they were
looking at the same building I was. It was
one of those things — some people saw this
broken down, horrible building, and I saw
the Princess of Aragon.”
During the last decade, Shields and a
group of volunteers have slowly created the
center — a cozy, welcoming, three-story
home featuring Latino decor, original cabi-
netry and decorative ceilings. The center
features several large meeting rooms, a din-
ing area in the basement and an enclosed
courtyard area outside, where programs and
gatherings can be held informally. “I would
really like to say that I had a comprehensive
idea. I didn’t,” Shields says. “I’m Irish and a
Greek major, and those are two mitigating
factors right there for comprehensive ideas. I
was just convinced the place needed to exist
for the people to come. It’s now a casa.”
Urban Renewal
David Shields, a Marquette University
priest, created the Casa Romero
Renewal Center, which offers
outreach programs for the
Latino community.
Event: A Taste Of Latin America
When: Saturday, April 30
Time: 7-11:30 p.m.
Where: Tripoli Shrine Center
3000 W. Wisconsin Ave., Milwaukee
Tickets:
$30 in advance; $40 at the door
Website:
www.casaromerocenter.org
The Rev. David Shields believes he has experienced a bit of divine intervention.
Without a debilitating disease that struck him about two decades ago, the Jesuit priest
might never have come to Milwaukee and created Casa Romero Renewal Center, a bilingual
retreat on Bruce Street that offers spiritual programs to the Latino community. “We say our
mission statement is to form and renew individuals, and to strengthen the family and build
the community,” Shields says during an interview at the center. “That is the real goal. How
can we build a stronger civic community, a stronger faith community and a stronger com-
munity in Milwaukee? Our goal is a better Milwaukee and a better society.”
The center is home to more than a dozen inventive faith-based programs that focus on the
Latino family and the journey of life. The La Quinceañera — Dreaming a Future of Hope pro-
gram is a day-long bilingual retreat for teenage girls and their mothers to connect and build a
stronger relationship. Another program — Canasta Liena — is a four-session retreat intended
to strengthen the spiritual and communication bonds throughout the family.
“Between the first-generation and second-generation Latino, there is a real disconnect be-
cause the parents, when they think about what it means to be a teenager, think about life in
the past (in their homeland) and the kids have never been there, and can’t go there because
of the immigration system,” he says.

Going Against the Grain
When Dwayne Sperber, a Delafield furniture maker, first became acquainted with the
farm-to-the-table initiative, which seeks to bring more locally grown food to area grocery
stores, restaurants and consumers, his first thought was “that table needs to be made from
local wood.”
“We need to make smart use of local resources,” says Sperber, who is an advocate of turn-
ing urban wood (trees in cities or suburban areas typically cut down because of disease or
injury) into usable hardwood lumber.
Although the urban wood movement has been around since the 1970s, Sperber says the
general public remains largely unaware about the opportunities to harvest such a regionally
abundant natural resource for constructive uses. Right now, most urban timber is destined to
become firewood or mulch.
Enter Urban(wood)Encounter, an exhibition that will showcase original furniture made
from reclaimed urban trees. The exhibition, presented by Town & Country RC&D, will be
held at the Design Within Reach Milwaukee Studio, 167 N. Broadway, on April 15 and 16, in
conjunction with Gallery Night.
Urban(wood)Encounter challenges furniture makers and designers to create a functional
piece of furniture using urban wood obtained from a source within a 150-mile radius of
Milwaukee. The inaugural event will feature
17 participants, ranging from well-known
furniture makers like Celia Greiner to nov-
ice designers like Natalya Neis, a 16-year-
old high school student from Brookfield.
“It’s really a platform to educate, promote
and inspire people to use this abundant re-
source,” Sperber says of the exhibition.
According to sustainable forestry studies,
if urban timber were fully utilized, it could
provide up to 30 percent of the United States’
timber needs. “Every tree should have a lo-
cal destination,” says Sperber. “Urban trees
can live on as sustainable building products
that help conserve resources and support
local jobs.”
Bruce Horigan, owner of Horigan Ur-
ban Forest Products, a hardwood sawmill
in Skokie, Ill., says the modern day urban
wood movement seeks to revive the use of
local lumber, a practice that was common
during the pioneer days.
“The urban wood movement is a funny
thing — I liken it to ‘Back to the Future,’”
says Horigan, whose company is sponsoring
the Urban(wood)Encounter. Horigan says
the one-of-a-kind exhibition is a chance to
show the public there are better uses for
urban wood than relegating it to the wood
chipper.
“It’s an opportunity to showcase pieces
made from a resource that might otherwise
be wasted,” he explains.
Most urban lumber is considered “charac-
ter wood” as a result of its unique aesthetic
qualities like knots, gnarls and wormwood
holes, which does little to raise its market
value or desirability.
“It’s true that urban wood has more char-
acter, but we want people to understand that
those unique qualities add to the beauty of
a piece of furniture or flooring, not detract
from it,” Horigan says.
But where the use of urban timber can
have a real impact is the environment, ad-
vocates say. Turning urban wood into us-
able hardwood lumber would reduce the
number of trees removed from living for-
ests; reduce the amount of fuel consumed
for transportation; and reduce the amount of
carbon released into the atmosphere.
“Regularly using urban wood could have
a huge impact,” Horigan says. “If we took
down 30 percent fewer trees every year, it
wouldn’t be long before future generations
would see old growth forests again.”
If Urban(wood)Encounter is successful,
Sperber says exhibition organizers would

Crew’s New
Skipper on Board
How does the addition of starting
pitchers Zack Greinke and Shaun
Marcum affect the team chemistry?
It doesn’t change the way we go about doing
things, but it changes the attitude of the fans, the
attitude of some of the players. It excites them,
because if we have the same kind of offensive year
(as in 2010) and now we have this great starting
staff, we’ve got a really good chance to win.
Attendance was almost 2.8 million
last year. How do you personally plan
to connect with the fans, to keep
their interest strong and positive?
I want the focus to be on the guys. I’m going to
get criticized for some things I do. That’s fine, that’s
part of the job. Say we succeed as a team — I
don’t want this to be because of me. It’s because
of the guys.
You’re the fan in the stands. What’s
more fun to watch: a walk-off home
run, a no-hitter by a pitcher or a
double steal?
The walk-off homers and no-hitters are huge —
don’t happen all that often. The double steals or
just the plain stolen base, hopefully that’s going to
happen a lot.
It’s been said you have good people
skills. How do you “coach” fun in the
clubhouse?
There are little things a manager can do, but I
think most of it is trying to get the personality out
of the players. If you can just get the players to
relax … to laugh, to have fun and to play their
game, if you have a good team and good quality
players, they’ll come out of a slump quicker than
being uptight about things.
Describe yourself as far as someone
with a passion for the game.
I’m pretty consistent in my personality. There’s
not a lot of real highs and not lows. I try to stay
positive. I need to care about what’s going on off
the field and make sure everything’s fine there. If I
can help with anything, fine. It may be just picking
up a guy, just walking by and picking him up a
little bit.
Do you have a favorite sports
movie or a sports movie moment?
“Brian’s Song” is one of my favorites, with the
adversity that some people go through, and keep
coming back. “Hoosiers” is just a great movie. It
talked about the mental part of it a lot, and how
people struggle with different things, and sticking
with people.
Do you have special memories
of some of the old stadiums
that don’t exist anymore?
The first time in Detroit, our first baseman, Pat
Putnam, hit three home runs in one game. The
third one, the right fielder would have caught the
ball but it hit the upper deck — it hit that thing
that protruded out. Yankee Stadium, going out
to the monuments and looking at those things
was pretty impressive. Candlestick, how cold that
place was. The elements were so tough, the wind
and the cold.
You have a sense of the history of
baseball, and that’s one of those
things that connects with fans,
the continuity of the game over
the years.
I think so. Free agency has changed some of
that, because players move around so much.
The Angels in 2002, fans got really attached to
those guys. When Scott Spezio came back, after
he’d left the Angels, there was a big ovation for
him and what he had done for the Angels. Those
things are pretty neat when they happen.
Are you planning to move to
Wisconsin?
I still live in southern California. I do like the
warm weather. When we have off days, I’m
looking forward to (being in Wisconsin). I love the
outdoors, I love to fish and hunt and I do play
golf. All three of those things really fit.
You’ll have to get Uecker to
take you out on the lake.
Does he fish a lot?
the View from the Dugout
Roenicke played for six teams in the majors
from 1981-88. That’s a lot of teammates and
opponents. Among those he most enjoyed
watching:
» Tony Gwynn: “Just watching how much
time he put in the batting cage and hitting and
studying it.”
» Mike Schmitt: “Very serious, just nobody
prepared harder than he did.”
» Fernando Valenzuela: “A fun personality, you
know, he just had this great sense of humor.”
the Making of a Manager
Ron Roenicke explains how some of his former
bosses influenced him:
» Del Crandall, minor leagues, Seattle
Mariners: “Del is a very intelligent guy, a very
intelligent baseball mind, but he could make
things really simple so we were able to execute
what it was he was trying to get us to do.”
» Tommy Lasorda, LA Dodgers: “A really fun
manager to play for. He could motivate you, you
enjoyed playing, you had excitement. I don’t have
that same personality, so I have to kind of create
what I can with the personality that I have.”
» Mike Scoscia, LA Angels: “Watching him
over the years, the way he handled the press, the
way he handled players … whether a guy was
slumping or when he’s in that great groove.”
Ron Roenicke played in the 1984 WoRld SeRieS and won a
championship ring as a coach with the 2002 Los Angeles Angels. Can he bring
a title to Milwaukee as the Brewers’ new manager? Before heading to spring
training, Roenicke talked with M writer Cathy Breitenbucher.

All Things Mommy
As a full-time, home-schooling mom, Shannon Schultz of Cedarburg knows how to keep
her three children — August, 7, Martha, 4, and Hazel, 2 — calm and carrying on. On her
Ugga Mugga blog, she shares her family friendly tips on everything from new products to
fashion, fascinating field trips and crafts that manage to be cute, but not sappy.
Armed with a degree in organizational communication and public relations, Schultz
plunged right into challenging jobs soon after graduating from Mequon’s Concordia University
Wisconsin. She worked as marketing manager at the Betty Brinn Children’s Museum and as
an event planner at Northwestern Mutual Life and Quarles & Brady. She also organized Firstar
Eve and Firstar Fireworks celebrations.
“But I always knew I wanted to be a stay-at-home mom,” she says.
So she left the corporate world behind, with faith that new opportunities would present
themselves. She took the same energy that propelled her business career and invested it in
researching “every aspect of being a mother,” she says. Soon friends began calling her for
advice, and Schultz found herself fielding questions about the safest car seats, best diaper
bags and keeping little ones entertained on snow days.
For more information, visit
www.UggaMugga.com and
www.UggaMuggaEvents.com.
When her husband, Aaron, suggested that
she write a blog, Schultz didn’t hesitate. She
borrowed one of August’s favorite phrases
from “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood” and
launched Ugga Mugga.
Schultz writes about children’s products
she can highly recommend from experience.
Although she often receives samples from
manufacturers, she says she does not get
paid to feature the items and writes only
about the products she loves.
It’s no coincidence that her 4-year-old is
named Martha. Schultz is a devoted Martha
Stewart fan. She has always had Stewart-
like tendencies. Her mother recalls Schultz’s
kindergarten teacher asking her to name
colors. Even at that tender age, Schultz’s
answers were “robin’s egg blue” and “moss
green.” The crafts featured on Ugga Mugga
have that same artistic sensibility, such as
charming do-it-yourself snow globes made
from plastic cups, white glitter and tiny
penguin figurines.
Now, Schultz says, she is combining all
of her interests into a new venture, Ugga
Mugga Events.
“It’s another way to try to reach more
families,” she says. “So now, instead of
hiring a magician or clown to come to a
birthday party for an hour, they can hire me
to come and do a nice craft.”
Families can hire Schultz to plan and
stage the entire party, or simply handle one
or two aspects of the event, such as creating
custom invitations or inventing a one-of-a-
kind cake.
The idea came from the “crazy” birthday
parties requested by her own kids, like
Hazel’s “cow party.” Schultz offered Hazel’s
guests an array of flavored milk, and they
played “pin the tail on the cow.” At the
Schultz’s fortune cookie party, homemade
dragons hung from the ceiling and each
guest had their personalized fortunes baked
into their cookies.
Five years ago, when she decided to stay
home to raise her children, Schultz never
dreamed that she would be a go-to resource
for families.
“I just try to make things easier for parents,
especially those who work, so they can
enjoy their kids more,” she says.
Using her skills as an event planner and marketing manager,
Shannon Schultz launched a blog for parents and a family-
oriented event planning business.

Jewelry designer Brenda Schweder recently
released her third book, “Steel Wire Jewelry.”
Express Yourself
by Laurie arendt | photography by dan Bishop
“Humans have always enjoyed embellish-
ing themselves, but I think more and more
there’s a movement to express individual-
ity and our personalities in our jewelry,”
Schweder says.
The Mount Mary College graduate’s jour-
ney into the one-of-a-kind jewelry world
started after she traded her corporate mar-
keting career for motherhood. “It was actu-
ally a great segue for me because it gave me
the opportunity to try all different forms of
art, and I initially thought jewelry was a cop-
out,” she laughs. “Jewelry? Everyone does
jewelry!”
But she was hooked, and there were a
number of things about jewelry making that
she enjoyed from the start.
“I think beaders have hoarding tenden-
cies, and I also tend to be that way about
found objects,” she says. “But I liked the
process of connecting with things.”
While she finds something to enjoy in ev-
ery piece she’s created, her choice of mate-
rials and approach to the craft consistently
produce two elements that she enjoys:
patina and history to the piece.
“But they also tend to have a bit of whim-
sy to them, which appeals to me,” she says.
“I like little jokes and quips in my work.”
In addition to creating her own pieces,
Schweder is a longtime contributor to Bead-
Style Magazine and has just released her
third book, “Steel Wire Jewelry.” She also
shares her craft through teaching others
how to make their own jewelry.
“It’s very different than my first two
books,” she says, noting the first two re-
volved around repurposing found and vin-
tage items. “But it did follow from it. I’ve
found that steel wire is a great venue for
capturing those found objects without drill-
ing them.”
There’s also something about the use of
steel wire, a utilitarian medium that can be
found in any hardware store, that appeals
to her.
“It’s a non-precious material in its value to
society,” she explains. “So when you make a
piece of jewelry, the value is not in the wire
as it would be in silver or gold. It’s in the
creation of the jewelry itself.”
There’s always been a segment of people who want to fit in. And then there’s that other
group of people, who not only embrace individuality, they thrive on it. That’s an idea that
resonates with Waukesha jewelry designer and author Brenda Schweder.

Ultimate Oprah
Yoga instructor Julie Lemerond hung with the
koalas last December, thanks to Oprah Winfrey.
Lemerond, a Wauwatosa native, was in the
audience for “The Oprah Winfrey Show” final
season premiere last September, when the TV
queen announced she was taking the entire
audience to Australia.
A longtime Winfrey admirer who now resides
in Scottsdale, Ariz., Lemerond completed an
application on Oprah’s website to become an
ultimate viewer.
“I don’t even remember what I said, but it
was about why I love Oprah,” she says. “I also
Photoshopped a picture of myself into a picture
of Oprah.”
A month later, she received a call from one of
the producers. Eventually, she was told she’d be
in the audience for the premiere.
Audience members knew nothing of the trip.
“It was so exciting,” she says. “People were
screaming and yelling. Confetti fell out of the
ceiling. We couldn’t believe it.”
Lemerond, her mom and 300 other ultimate
viewers visited Australia along with Winfrey
Dec. 5 to 15. Once there, the fans were divided
into smaller groups, depending on their interests.
“We spent a few days in Sydney, then my group
went to Byron Bay, a beautiful beachside town,”
she says. “We rejoined everyone for three more
days in Sydney, watched a U2 concert and met
Olivia Newton-John.”
As an extra thrill, Lemerond was chosen
to accompany Oprah on the red carpet for a
“Welcome to Sydney” event.
“It was a life-changing experience that took us
out of the box of our everyday experiences,” she
says. “It was an amazing time.”

Dynamic Diva
There’s something about meeting Cassandra McShepard that makes
you feel like you can do it all. Maybe it’s because she has.
When she walks into a room, it fills with optimism, groundedness
and a “you-can-do-it, girl” spirit. Today, she looks amazing, wearing
a draped black coat that floats as she walks, leaving one to wonder
where she got it. (She made it, as she does most of her clothes.) And
her sassy crop on top, albeit a wig — she speaks often of her collec-
tion — completes her polished persona.
McShepard is one of four morning television personalities who ex-
ude boundless energy on the chatty morning show Real Milwaukee
on Fox 6. Many are just happy she resurfaced after her six-year stint
as an enchanting radio personality with WMCS-AM (1290) ended in
2009.
But what some may not know is that McShepard spent decades
sharpening her skills, honing her talents and, as she says, “designing
her life.” It’s a befitting analogy for this woman, whose life dream
was to become a fashion designer.
“I wanted to design clothes and be famous,” says McShepard, in
her hypnotic tone. Her early design laurels include making uniforms
for The Pfister Hotel and running a boutique of her own.
But a chance meeting catapulted her career to the next level when
she landed an in-person visit with the late R&B singer Phyllis Hy-
man. McShepard would go on to dress Hyman for 14 years. She also
designed ensembles for Nancy Wilson, the Manhattans, The Whis-
perers, Maze and others.
Life with Hyman changed her, and so did Hyman’s suicidal death.
It led McShepard to re-examine her life. “By 35, I was fried, burnt
out,” she says, somberly. “I was tired of making gowns for divas to
make enough money to make gowns for divas.”
Ready to look forward, she moved back to Milwaukee, expect-
ing great things, but having no clue where to find them. When a
long-lost friend saw her at a wedding and suggested they pitch a
program idea to radio station WMCS, McShepard listened. The first
attempt failed, but McShepard’s cohort tried again and the two “split
one check” as guest hosts of their own show. Eventually, the friend
grew weary but McShepard continued, taking on more responsibili-
ties and soon becoming host of the afternoon program, “That’s What
I’m Talkin’ About.” “If it’s in your mind, it’s yours to do,” McShepard
insists.
In between her public successes, McShepard experienced person-
al disappointments. In addition to Hyman’s death and a divorce in
her early 20s, one of her younger brothers died of cancer, and her
parents passed away.
Through it all, she still rises. Her brother’s death at age 38 inspired
her to do what she’s always wanted to do – sing – and now she
performs a jazzy monologue at various venues. “But I don’t kick
my shoes off like Phyllis used to do,” she quips. Forever impacted
by her mother’s struggle with Alzheimer’s disease, McShepard now
serves as the spokesperson for the Wisconsin Alzheimer’s Institute.
If there was ever anyone who could make lemonade out of lem-
ons, it has to be McShepard. Just 15 months after exiting the doors
of the radio station, she was contacted by Fox 6 personnel about
co-hosting a new local TV show with Katrina Cravy, Rob Haswell
and Nicole Koglin.
In her spare time, McShepard is a motivational speaker, personal
trainer and video blogger (“This Is What I Know So Far,” http://
cassandrasbread.blogspot.com/). She also finds time to play video
games, watch a bit of reality TV (“The Real Housewives of Atlanta”)
and build furniture (“I love the smell of sawdust!”)
“My entire life doesn’t make any sense,” she insists, gesturing with
her hands. “But it’s my reality. I don’t ask how. I just focus on doing
the thing.”

Truth Meets Fiction
When Rob Grede stumbled upon historic family
heirlooms while helping his parents pack up the
family homestead in the late 1990s, he knew
instantly there was a story waiting to be told.
“My father’s account of the spur and sash
held our rapt attention,” says Grede, who spent
the next 11 years meticulously researching and
writing the Civil War-era novel.
The artifacts, which date back to the 1860s,
belonged to Grede’s great-great-grandfather,
George Van Norman, a prominent Milwaukee
businessman who helped found the city of South
Milwaukee. In 1865, though, Van Norman was a
young Union soldier who was wounded in battle
and sent to Tennessee to convalesce.
While Grede has
authored best-selling
nonfiction marketing
books, “The Spur
& The Sash” is his
first fictional effort.
Despite the Civil War
backdrop, Grede
likened the story to
a classic Romeo and
Juliet tale. “It’s really
a timeless love story,”
explains Grede, who wasn’t particularly interested
in historical fiction before penning “The Spur &
The Sash.”
Although he grew up in Elm Grove hearing
stories about his great-great-grandfather,
researching the novel allowed Grede to become
intimately acquainted with his famous ancestor.
“I gained real insight into his personality,” Grede
says.
Grede’s promotional book tour includes several
Wisconsin appearances in April. For a complete

Short Take
Grace’s Gospel
Grace Weber’s voice is like the “Sparrows” she sings about on the
title cut of her most recent EP: feathery soft, lilting and full of soul.
Yet it may have never been realized had she not joined the Inner City Youth Gospel Choir in
Milwaukee when she was 12. The Wauwatosa native and 2006 Pius XI High School grad says
ever since she could remember, she’s wanted to sing, and she did – in the family basement,
kitchen and car. In fact, she was particularly drawn to the voices of Whitney Houston, Celine
Dion, Mariah Carey, Eva Cassidy and India.Arie.
But it was her time with the Milwaukee-based gospel chorus that sharpened her chops and
deepened her appreciation for soulful music. “It was a huge dream of mine to join a gospel
choir. Growing up in Wauwatosa, I didn’t know if choirs like the ones in the ‘Sister Act’ movies
were in Milwaukee.
“Then one day on a retreat in sixth grade, my teacher announced that our special guest
would be this choir. They entered the room and sang. I knew that this was what I wanted to
be a part of,” Weber says during a phone interview from New York City. “I went up to the
choir director and said, ‘Could I sing for you guys?’ Then I sang ‘Amazing Grace’ in the most
soulful voice that I could drum up. It took two months to convince my mother to drive me
to the rehearsals in the city, but I told her this was something I had to do.”
Four years of soulful tutelage took Weber to churches and revivals about the city and
helped produce the mature sound that won her honors. By age 16 she performed on
Wauwatosa native Grace Weber has
shared her talents on “Showtime at the
Apollo,” “The Today Show,” and “The
Oprah Winfrey Show,” as well as at the
Kennedy Center and the Ella Awards.
BY LISA JONES TOWNSEL
“Showtime at the Apollo” at Harlem’s Apollo
Theater. At 18, she sang at the Kennedy Cen-
ter and was named a Presidential Scholar by
the National Foundation for the Advance-
ment in the Arts. At 20, she was touring and
recording as part of the Grace Weber Band.
At 21, in November 2009, she appeared on
Oprah Winfrey’s Karaoke Challenge, where
Winfrey handpicked Weber from among
thousands to appear on the show. And last
year, at 22, Weber graduated from New York
University (bachelor’s degree in music per-
formance and music marketing), became a
Billboard “Spotlight Artist to Watch,” and
worked on her debut solo album (due for
release in June) with Grammy Award-win-
ning producer Mike Mangini.
Although most of her time is now spent
in the Big Apple, Weber is always happy to
return home. “I miss my family a lot. I have
three siblings. My mom and dad are there …
And my sister just had a baby,” says Weber,
who now has a manager, a website and a
calendar full of gigs. “I love New York, but I
feel lucky to get to go home to Milwaukee,
to calm down a bit.”

Conquering Colitis
For Megan Starshak of Milwaukee, the symptoms of ulcerative colitis began when she was
a junior in high school. The disease, an inflammation of the colon, often causes frequent
and urgent trips to the bathroom and severe abdominal pain. “At first, I thought maybe I
had a virus,” says Starshak, 26. “I was doing high school track at the time and thought I was
overworking.”
But Starshak’s pain and cramping got worse over time, and her body was becoming unable
to absorb nutrients and water. Family and friends were concerned, and she often had to
assure friends that she was not anorexic or bulimic. She went to several doctors, but did not
get a definitive diagnosis of ulcerative colitis until the summer after she graduated from high
school and was looking forward to her freshman year in college.
“It’s a huge transitional time,” Starshak says, and not only was she away from her parents
and making her own decisions, she was also trying to define her own identity. She was
meeting new people and trying to get involved in sports. Starshak realized that everything
she did was going to be affected by her condition. She wasn’t sure how much to tell people
about her symptoms and knew that some just would not understand.
“It makes you grow up a little bit faster,” she says. “In college, you have all the freedom in
the world and none of the responsibility. If I go out for a night of drinking, I could be sick
for a month.”
After being stricken
with ulcerative colitis
when she was in
high school, Megan
Starshak is now an
advocate for the
Crohn’s and Colitis
Foundation.
The course of treatment called for
Starshak to take 12 anti-inflammatory pills
per day, including a steroid, which tamed
the symptoms, but did not completely stop
them.
When a new intravenous therapy called
Remicade became available, Starshak
decided to give it a try. Remicade works with
the immune system to combat the disease.
Starshak says she noticed a difference three
days after her first treatment. “After six years
of being sick and dealing with symptoms,
and being mentally exhausted, it was like
waking up a new person,” she says.
Every eight weeks, Starshak spends three
hours at Froedtert Hospital undergoing
Remicade therapy. She says she looks
forward to that time, and uses it to relax and
recharge.
She recently completed her MBA at
UW-Milwaukee and landed a position in
marketing for a local manufacturer. She is an
avid cyclist and would eventually like to race
competitively. Every year, Starshak cycles
in a charity ride for the Crohn’s and Colitis
Foundation, and her mother volunteers on
the sidelines.
“Basically, I’ve been in remission for two
years. I can eat salad, drink Pepsi and run
again without issues,” she says.
Starshak says Voices of UC, an educational
and awareness program, has helped her
understand ulcerative colitis by providing
information and resources for patients and
their families.
“Their website is a really great place if
you’re newly diagnosed and kind of just
learning,” she says. “You’re arming yourself
with information.”
She was one of 1,000 people with ulcerative
colitis who participated in a recent survey
sponsored by Voices of UC. The survey was
intended to identify gaps in the way patients
and physicians discuss treatment, and it also
gave patients an opportunity to share their
insights about dealing with the disease.
Starshak says an important way to cope
with ulcerative colitis, which has no cure
as of yet, is to talk with others who are
experiencing the same issues. “I think
it’s important also to remember that even
though it’s a terrible disease with awful side
effects, sometimes it changes you for the
better,” she says. “Through colitis I’ve also
realized that I’m so strong and I can handle
more things than I’ve ever imagined.”

Living with Cancer
A
three-sport athlete in high school, Kevin Crowley, 25, was eager to stay active during
cancer treatments that lasted nearly all of 2010.
Thanks to physical therapy and miles of indoor cycling workouts on a trainer, Crowley
is back at work and wrapping up graduate school at UW-Milwaukee. He’s also hoping
to hit the roads and resume a 50-miles-per-week biking regimen.
Crowley was diagnosed with sarcoma, a cancer of the cells that form muscle and connective
tissue, in his left leg. He underwent chemotherapy, surgery to replace his femur and hip, more
chemo and then radiation.
“By being active during chemo, the fatigue wasn’t so bad,” says Crowley, an accounting student
who lives in Brookfield. “The last few rounds of chemo, when I could get on the bike again, it defi-
nitely, definitely helped.”

Fatigue

Fighter
BY CATHY BREITENBUCHER I PHOTOGRAPHY BY DAN BISHOP
Cancer patients
encouraged to exercise
in order to maintain
muscle mass, stamina
Kevin Crowley combated
fatigue from cancer
treatment by continuing
to ride his bike.
Here are some exercise programs geared
to cancer patients. Some have specific start
dates, while others are ongoing. Be sure to
ask if a referral from your physician or physical
therapist is needed.
• YOGA, 4-5 p.m., Thursdays, Waukesha
Memorial Hospital Professional Office
Building, Suite 305, 725 American Ave.,
Waukesha. Free. Call Collette LaFrancis,
(262) 928-7221.
• LOOK GOOD FEEL BETTER, 1-3 p.m.,
April 18, Oconomowoc Memorial Hospital;
May 16, PHCMA Menomonee Falls; and June
20, Waukesha Memorial Hospital. These
single-session classes are designed to help
women who are undergoing cancer treat-
ment develop skills to improve their appear-
ance and self-image. Free (registration
required). Call American Cancer Society,
(800) 227-2345.
Experts say therapy and exercise can restore
range of motion and build muscle mass —
important components of both daily activities
and fitness.
According to Crowley’s physical therapist,
Chris Walczak of Froedtert & Medical College
of Wisconsin Cancer Center, aerobic exercise is
documented to reduce cancer-related fatigue.
Besides, she adds, “It gives them some con-
trol over their disease. They’re actively doing
something to make themselves feel better.”
Fitness organizations and health clubs
are offering specialized workouts, too. The
YMCA and the Lance Armstrong Foundation
co-sponsor “LiveStrong at the Y,” a 12-week
program held locally at the Tri-County branch
in Menomonee Falls and the Feith Ozaukee
branch in Port Washington.
The focus is on small classes and individu-
alized plans for patients, some of whom may
still be involved in their hospital-based PT.
Workouts can include zumba, pilates, yoga,
weights or cardiovascular training.
“People get familiar with the machines
and how to do different routines,” explains
Stephanie Navarro, area director of healthy
lifestyles for the YMCA of Metro Milwaukee. “If
they haven’t been exercisers, it’s getting them
to make it part of their lifestyle routine.”
As for Crowley, he sees cycling, swimming
and softball in his future, and he encourages
other cancer patients to pursue exercise.
“Try to be as active as possible,” he says.
“Sitting around isn’t the best way to pass the
time — it can just drag on.”

Myth Busters
Treating cancer is far different from a generation ago.
To separate fact from fiction, M writer Cathy Breitenbucher turned to two
local experts — Dr. Peter H. Johnson, medical oncologist and medical direc-
tor at ProHealth Care Regional Cancer Center; and Dr. Craig Schulz, radiation
oncologist and medical director of oncology services at Columbia St. Mary’s
Cancer Center.
BY CATHY BREITENBUCHER
M: Is high-dose chemotherapy the best
treatment?
Johnson: It depends on the specific type
of cancer, even the specific sub-type of cancer,
and the patient’s other medical conditions.
Post-operative therapy for Stage 3 colon cancer
or Stage 2 or Stage 3 breast cancer may often
involve taking pills or undergoing intravenous
therapy. By most traditional definitions, this
would not be considered quote-unquote high-
dose therapy.
Schulz: There is certainly data that would
support what we call dose-dense (treatment)
— meaning (chemo) doses given rapidly,
together or close together. They have a survival
benefit in patients with breast cancer. There are
also high-dose treatments with chemotherapy
for lymphomas, leukemias and myelomas (for
patients) in preparation for transplants.
M: Does a standard protocol based on chemo and radiation show better results
than 30 or 40 years ago?
Johnson: Yes. The systemic therapy is not all chemo these days. Some of it is classic cytotoxic
chemo that we may have been using for the last 30 years or more; some of those drugs are still
quite useful. And yet, the broader term of system therapy encompasses not just those agents but
other drugs (such as) oral therapy that may have few if any side effects.
Schulz: Radiation is very different than 30 to 40 years ago, at least in terms of how we deliver
it — how we can better analyze how the radiation dose is distributed to the tumor target area.
Clearly, by having better drugs and better ability to deliver targeted therapy with radiation, in
many cancers results have been very favorable.
M: Is there an accepted number of years for a patient in remission
to be considered safe from recurrence?
Johnson: As long as you are living, your odds of a recurrence never go to zero but they
approach that line over time.
Schulz: That “c” word — cured — always is a hard one to cough up. We tell our head and neck
cancer patients, if they make it beyond that two years after the completion of therapy, they have
a very good chance of being long-term survivors. Breast cancer, five years; prostate, seven to 10;
and lung cancer, after three years they certainly may be long-term survivors.
M: Are alternative treatments found outside the United States a realistic option
to help a patient go into remission?
Johnson: The term ‘alternative therapy’ has a lot of meanings. It may mean something like
herbal therapy taken orally, acupuncture or reiki. Being a U.S.-trained oncologist, we tend to
employ medications and techniques we are familiar and comfortable with, and which have
undergone pretty intense scrutiny by the FDA and other organizations.
Schulz: Certainly, there are some alternative treatments that are offered elsewhere or are in
an experimental form right now, that are reasonable. There are some chemotherapy drugs that
are approved for some disease sites overseas and are not approved here. It is a realistic option in
some circumstances.
M: Any other myths about cancer treatment out there?
Johnson: We do bump up frequently into perceptions that the chemotherapy today is no bet-
ter than or different than what was given 30 or 40 years ago where patients, as a matter of routine,
were violently ill with nausea and vomiting, had profound weight loss, fatigue, hair loss, etc.,
and many of those instances required extensive and intensive hospitalizations for weeks on end.
Fortunately, nowadays that’s the rare exception and not the rule.
There is also the notion that cancer is driven by sugar, and if you can just cut out all the sugar in
your diet you’ll cure your cancer. Unfortunately, that’s not true. It would be great if it were.
Schulz: The same goes with the bad effects of radiation. We have ways of pinpointing radia-
tion beams or sculpting radiation treatments very precisely to treat what we want to treat and
minimize the doses to the surrounding tissue, therefore keeping side effects very manageable.
The other big myth is that cancer patients are contagious. I hear it all the time. M

What makes a home worth $1 million or more in metro
Milwaukee? “Location has everything to do with it,” says
Shorewest Realtor Essam Elsafy. “A great view is important,
which can be a lake view or the view from a high-rise pent-
house in a luxury condominium development. The size of the
lot or a large amount of lake frontage also adds value,” he says.
“Of course, great design and amenities are important as well.”
Currently, the Milwaukee-area market has a good supply
of outstanding luxury homes in the $1 million-plus price range
and each has something unique and beautiful to offer. This is
just a sampling.

SPECIALTY: Northshore residential.
YEARS IN REAL ESTATE: 15
BACKGROUND: Kathleen holds a
Bachelor of Fine Arts degree and studied
interior design/textile design at Savannah
College of Art and Design. After moving
back to the Milwaukee area, Kathleen
managed a home décor boutique and
was employed in the field of gallery art
sales. After becoming a real estate agent
in 1996, Kathleen quickly became one of
the Northshore’s top agents. THE
APPROACH: My goal is for every buyer
and seller to feel that all details have been
taken care of from start to finish. I provide
solid strategies for marketing and negoti-
ating. I ask my sellers to put themselves
into the mindset of the buyers that they
are selling to. When we are looking at
things together from several different per-
spectives a favorable outcome is almost
always possible. My background in interior
design allows me to make sure that every
home is “show perfect” before it hits the
market. If you want to compete in the
market today this is critical. Open com-
munication is a must and I think that lis-
tening to a client’s wants and needs is
essential. WHAT CLIENTS SAY:
“Kathleen breezed into my house like a
breath of fresh air. She was excited and
enthusiastic with lots of ideas for the sale
of my home. Her attention to detail in pre-
senting my house was incredible. I would
recommend her unreservedly. She is
great!” “Kathleen was phenomenal! She
quickly got a feel for what we did and
didn’t like in a house and didn’t waste
our time showing a property that didn’t
fit our criteria. We will work with
Kathleen again in the future.” CONTACT

he condo on the 27th floor of
Kilbourn Tower is a pleasing jux-
taposition in the way the interior
architecture and design create a
venue to take in the dramatic views of the
Milwaukee skyline.
“When the lights come on in the evening
and the sky goes dark, the skyline comes to
life. You feel like you are in New York, Chicago
or even Paris,” says interior designer Jessica
Jubelirer. “It transports you to a glamorous
place that has a real sense of urban glamour
that is unexpected in Milwaukee.”
Nearly all of the main living spaces in the
double-unit condo feature scenes of the city,
from the landmark Wisconsin Gas Co. build-
ing to the unparalleled Calatrava to the ever-
changing hues of Lake Michigan. “I think when
you walk in here and look at the city you see
another layer that contributed to the design of
the condo,” the homeowner says.
When one pulls away from the mesmer-
izing landscape and turns one’s attention
inside, the elegance and sophistication of the
interior come into view. “It contains so many
unique and one-of-a-kind pieces that contrib-
ute to a really special quality in that you can
walk through the home and stop and appreci-
ate each piece for what it is really is,” Jubelirer
says. A less is more philosophy shows itself
throughout in an understated elegance and
unexpected compositions. Luxurious fab-
rics of silk, mohair, velvet and satin, and the
smoothness, sparkle and shine from accent
pieces create a glamorous sensibility. Many of
the furnishings are from the Merchandise Mart
in Chicago; other pieces are finds on antiqu-
ing trips to New York City. The chandeliers are
works of art in themselves. “We didn’t have a
chandelier obsession until we did this place,”
the homeowner laughs.
“Although the home is really glamorous, it’s
a casual type of glamour,” Jubelirer says. “It’s
not overly formal. It’s inviting comfortable and
easy to live in. There isn’t any room you don’t
feel you can go into and enjoy.”
That’s due, in part, to the varying ceiling
heights and other architectural concepts that
prevent the space from becoming overwhelm-
ing. “While there is a very open flow to the
space, each space is really defined and really
unique,” Jubelirer says. “In each space there
are one or two really focal elements, and the
other elements within the space complement
the bigger statement,” she says.
The homeowner says working on the condo
was a journey in self-revelation for the couple.
“We refined our taste level and we started
understanding what we really liked,” she says.
The result is a home that reflects their timeless
sense of style, and yet is warm and welcoming
for friends and family.
The cerused oak bar evokes a bygone
era of glamour and craftsmanship.

The family room sectional in mohair and satin is posi-
tioned to take in the views of the Calatrava and Lake
Michigan from nearly 30 stories above. “The view was
consideration at every point,” the homeowner says.
April 2011 | M 77
The show-stopping powder room, conceived by
the late Jon Schlagenhaft, is clad in three walls
of antique mirrors. “The room feels like it goes on
for an eternity,” says designer Jessica Jubelirer.
The vanity wall is stone and the chandelier is
hand-carved wood clad in silver leaf.
78 M | April 2011
The Hudson chandelier over the kitchen island is comprised of
thousands of strands of nickel chains. “It feels like a couture
piece of clothing with all the draping and movement,” says
designer Jessica Jubelirer.
April 2011 | M 79
Cream colors create an elegant
palette in one of two guest bath-
rooms in the condo. A plush Flokati
rug softens the room’s hard surfaces.
“There was a real awareness of cre-
ating intimate spaces within an open
space,” Jubelirer says.
The curves of the bed and the sheen
of the fabrics are subtle details that
provide a softness to the space. m

selecting an interior designer can feel intimidating, but it doesn’t have to according
to the experts. photo was taken at the Thomasville showroom, Brookfield.
If you’ve ever considered working with an
interior designer but weren’t quite sure how
the process goes, look no further. Here, two
“in-the-know” designers talk about the pros of
working with an expert.
“A designer will help you establish a direction toward achiev-
ing your goals,” notes John Edbauer, ASID, an interior designer at
McNabb & Risley in Thiensville. Before starting a project, there are
several questions he asks clients.
➊ What do you currently have in the room?
➋ What do you like and not like about the room and its
existing furnishings?
➌ How does the room currently function and how do
you ultimately need it to function?
Using the answers as starting points, Edbauer then forms a plan. He
can do anything from adding a new piece, like a sofa, and integrating
it with the rest of your existing furnishings, to simply accessorizing
what you already have, to completely redoing the room with new
paint, window treatments, furniture and accessories.
Working with an interior designer will help solve your design
problems. For example, Edbauer says the recent proliferation of new
technologies and electronics such as flat screen TVs have presented
new challenges in the design world. “They might completely change
the way a room needs to be laid out. The bottom line is we will do
whatever necessary to help you meet your design needs. We are on
your side. Our goal is to make you fall in love with your room all over
again.”
Mara Wierschke, an interior designer at Thomasville in Brookfield,
feels effective communication skills are critical when selecting an
interior designer. The design process is a team effort between design-
er and client. “You need to have a ‘vibe.’ You should have a good
vocabulary with that person. Putting words and pictures together is
essential. If you can’t do that with a prospective designer, that might
be a red flag.”
Wierschke feels seeing a designer’s work is invaluable.
Additionally, you should lay the groundwork for the successful com-
pletion of a project by establishing parameters.
➊ Ask to see a portfolio. Tour prospective designers’ work
in showhouses and showrooms, too.
➋ Establish a time frame.
➌ Be sure to have a budget.
“Designers should be able to communicate around these settings,”
says Wierschke. “There are different pricing options for professional
interior design services so pick the one that works best for you.” As
Wierschke observes, “Using a designer prevents mistakes. Whatever
the upfront investment, it’s well worth it in the long term.”
Wierschke sums up the partnership between interior designer
and client: “Ultimately, my job is to listen. Then I try to take my
clients somewhere they might not go on their own. When a
client tells me they love the final result, then I know we have
worked well together.” M

universal/functional design • solid value and cost savings

Set for an early dinner, a striking floral
centerpiece and bold blue glassware
pop off the red-checked tablecloth.
Tiz Meyer painted the red chairs, which
are usually housed in the barn and used
for indoor functions. “It’s wonderful
to have dinner outside. It creates an
ambiance that’s different than eating in
the dining room. It’s casual, yet elegant.
The gardens, sculptures and landscape
are natural conversation starters,” she
notes. In the distance, tamarack log
fencing straddles the large stones, as
had been constructed by the first set-
tlers of the farm.

he depicts in history,” Meyer says. Next to him is an original

ny excuse for a party.
If there’s a celebration or a reason to
get together, Tizza and Glenn Meyer
love to host. For the past 16 years, Stone
Fences Farm, their 160-acre compound
outside of Dousman has seen just about everything.
Local charity luncheons, family get-togethers by the
lake, a garden wedding and even dinner parties in the
field or an afternoon glass of tea with a friend. Next
up? A birthday party for a tree.
Lovingly restored by the Meyers through the years,
the property is home to a combination of nature’s
beauty and Tiz Meyer’s iron creations. Surrounded
by 4.5 miles of stone fences, the original Welsh set-
tlers moved these giant, glacier-driven stones, to the
land in the late 19th century. “I marvel at how they
moved them,” Tiz Meyer remarks. The couple have
taken great care to respect the vision and incred-
ible hard work of the original owners. The founders
raised sheep and grew hops to sell to local breweries.
Tamarack logs were used to grow the hops, so in sev-
eral places around the property, Meyer has construct-
ed tamarack racks as a tribute. They also have sheep.
After completing welding classes, Meyer, a former
art and antiques dealer, used her endless creative
energy to construct a number of iron sculptures and

Although most of the original buildings on the property were saved,
the largest barn was too far gone and had to be razed. Left behind
was the original stone wall. “I knew it was the perfect spot for a
sunken garden. This place has extra special meaning to me. I have
plants from my mother and grandmother and my daughter was mar-
ried here.” The iron fence surrounding the top of the wall was Meyer’s
frst welding project. “I love putting together fantasy pieces. Folk art
characters, musical instruments, games like tic-tac-toe, a bike, trac-
tor seats and even old tools and other implements brought to me by
local farmers are incorporated into this crazy fence. There is even an
iron man with no face, so kids can put their heads into it.”

ABOVE Tiz Meyer grew up on the Mississippi River
and has special memories of watching eagles soar-
ing over her and her brothers lying on their backs
along the river banks. Inspired by that vision, she
constructed the iron mother and baby. The heads
are painted and two glass street lamp covers are
incorporated into the body of the baby. Metal
scraps form their nest. “The baby is looking up at
its mother as if to say what kids always say to their
mothers: ‘It’s a good time to eat’!” she laughs.
TOP While Meyer does not usually paint her iron,
she says her storybook characters should be
bright and colorful. “There is lots of detail in these
pieces too. It’s all in keeping with happy childhood
remembrances.”
fantasy pieces that are strategically placed
around the property. There is a story behind
every one. Many are inspired by her love of
children and all-things family, others by her
awe of the land and nature that surrounds her.
Now back to that party for the tree. “We have
the champion bur oak in the state,” Meyer says.
“It is 23 feet around its base. Several years ago
it was determined that the tree was an acorn in
1711 so this summer we will be having a 300-
year birthday party to celebrate. Mother Nature
surprises us every day. I feel so lucky to be a
part of this place.”

Now stocked with blue gill and large-mouth bass,
Tiz and Glenn Meyer dug the six-acre lake several
years after purchasing the property and asked their
grandchildren to name it. They were thrilled when
the kids came up with Lake No Na Pa, which are
nicknames for their grandparents. Being Native
American history buffs, the Meyers also like its
Native American sound. The colorful umbrellas and
gazebo make it a great family gathering spot for
swimming and fshing.

he dramatic trusses that bridge the ceil-
ing of the Mequon home of Rich Taylor
and Kim Temkin-Taylor not only make
the room a “wow” space, but frame the
equally dramatic views of the wetlands that lie
just beyond their property. “The seasons change
all around us and we are right there,” Taylor says.
For Taylor, a photographer, and Temkin-
Taylor, an interior designer, visual appeal is an
important aspect of the home’s design. For him,
it’s reducing visual clutter; for her, creating visual
drama with a well-designed lighting plan. For
both, it’s enjoying the outdoor views.
Low-voltage lighting connected to dimmers
and installed on the trusses allows for many dif-
ferent effects in the great room throughout the
day. “The lighting is huge throughout the house
but in this room in particular, lighting is key,”
she says.
ABOVE A glass chest the homeowner and her daugh-
ter found in Florida is framed by a family-themed
painting by a Sodona, Calif., artist.
LEFT Homeowner and interior designer Kim Temkin-
Taylor says the word “architectural” comes to mind
to describe the living/dining room. “It’s connected to
the adjacent spaces but still has its own identity.” The
trusses are made of a wood composite material with
a walnut veneer and faux parchment fnish to give
them a rough timber feel. The wood foor is laid in a
chevron pattern to lead the eye to the outdoor views.

A lighted coved ceiling adds both drama and warmth to the
master bedroom. Temkin-Taylor says her goal was to create a
peaceful, serene, comfortable escape. A gas freplace opposite
the bed adds another layer of comfort to the intimate setting. The
bed, with its fabric-covered headboard, presents a contemporary
feel. It’s covered with a faux fur throw and Thomaspaul pillows.
92 M | April 2011
A three-year design process allowed the couple to make
numerous custom accommodations. “It took a lot of planning,”
Temkin-Taylor says. “There were certain points where we just
stopped and reworked things.”
Temkin-Taylor says she first envisioned the design as con-
temporary. “I really wanted clean lines, no crown moldings or
embellishments,” she says. “But a lot of our furnishings area
really quite eclectic. That sort of creates an artistry in the house
when there is that mix. It creates a space that’s more interesting
if you have different elements, as long as they work together,”
she says.
She took an inventory of the family’s existing furnishings,
reusing some pieces, such as the dining table, and selling others
that didn’t work in the new home, such as the dining table chairs.
“I don’t like things to be too matchy-matchy,” she says. “I scout
out different things and put them together because that makes it
more interesting.
“This house is also a real mix of high and low price points, and
I think that’s fine to do,” she says. “I think there is good design at
every level.”
A BainUltra freestanding air tub is a focal point in
the master bathroom, set off by the long, narrow
design and mini cathedral ceiling. Temkin-Taylor uses
lighting, warm and cool tones and a mix of materials
— limestone countertops, wood cabinetry, porcelain
foor tile — to create a soothing escape.

CONTEMPORARY SETTING SHOWCASES OWNER’S ART COLLECTION
BY JANET RAASCH | PHOTOGRAPHY BY DOUG EDMUNDS
The Janis Joplin canvas in Jerry Janis’ home
office came to be following a fundraiser in
which Janis was outbid for a painting of
Willie Nelson by the same artist, who agreed
to create this one for Janis. Every piece of
art in Janis’ collection has a story to tell.
April 2011 | M 97
TOP LEFT The entryway to Janis’ condo features his extensive art collection.
Modern furnishings and a mix of modern, traditional and ethnic artwork come
together in the Third Ward condo that overlooks the Milwaukee River.
hough he might not have realized it
then, Jerry Janis began collecting art
as a child on the day his great-grandfa-
ther gave him one of his paintings. His
great-grandfather, a Latvian diplomat
who lost everything in World War II, later moved
to New York and became an insurance agent.
“His third career was an artist,” Janis says.
Like his great-grandfather’s paintings, each
piece in Janis’ ever-growing collection has a story
associated with it. “A lot of it comes from travel-
ing in Mexico, Brazil and South Africa, but also
from artists I’ve known through my lifetime,”
Janis says, noting he has met most of the artists
whose works he has collected.
After living in New York City, Washington,
D.C., south Florida and Chicago, the Long Island
native has been in Milwaukee for two-plus years,
acquiring quite a few local works in that time.
He has six pieces by the Russian-born Boris
Ostrerov, a MIAD grad now studying in New York
City, and recently purchased a Charles Dwyer
painting during MIAD’s Open Canvas event.
His Third Ward loft in the River Renaissance
Condos was designed — down to the wall col-
ors — to showcase his art. He collaborated with
Laree Allen of Allen Kitchen and Bath, Milwaukee
and Madison, in designing the raw space. “I had
the vision and they made it come to reality,” Janis
says. “I definitely knew I wanted it to be as mod-
ern as possible.”
He shed his formerly eclectic furniture style in
2007 while living in Chicago in favor of all mod-
ern furnishings. “A lesson I learned is just go with
what you want and don’t be constrained with
the architecture,” Janis says. “They say the same
thing with artwork: You can make older pieces
look great in a modern building.”
He’s quickly running out space; some of the
pieces are now in storage. “I’ve moved to sculp-
ture because I have no more wall space,” Janis
says. m

When BelAir Cantina opened last fall with little fan-
fare, it didn’t take long before word spread about this
California-style Mexican bistro to fill it with hungry cus-
tomers seven days a week. BelAir replaced the popular
Good Life on the northwest corner of Humboldt and
Water. It’s part of a group of restaurants owned by Leslie
Montomuro and Scott Johnson that includes the popular
HoneyPie, Balzac and Comet Café. All the Montomuro/
Johnson restaurants share a common goal: really good
food at reasonable prices.
BelAir could be a poster child for food frugalistas. It
often offers taco/tostado specials. On a recent visit, $2
bought a choice of Carne Asada, shirt steak, onion and
cilantro; Carnitas with pico de gallo; Pollo Verde, shred-
ded chicken; and Rajas, a classic mix of grilled chilies
and onions with beans and cheese. Add to that delicious
chips and three kinds of salsa, and a person could enjoy
a satisfying lunch and still get change from a $5 bill.
The most popular menu choices are tacos and tosta-
dos in corn or flour tortillas. Order three and you also
get complementary rice and beans. Personal favorites
include Korean Beef Tacos, spicy sweet marinated beef
with the unique flavor of sriracha crema; Zihuatanejo
Shrimp with chipotle mayo; and Tilapia Baja, San Di-
ego-style fish taco. The burritos can be ordered as a
wrap, or as I did, in a bowl. Carne Asada, tender, full of
rich beef flavor, topped a mountain of rice and Drunken
Pinto Beans that hid a salad, mixed greens, onion, salsa
roja and cilantro.
A few starters include guacamole and chips for avo-
cado lovers and Mexican Roasted Corn for people who
love street food south of the border. From the bar, BelAir
serves more than 50 kinds of tequila, many house-made
margaritas, red or white sangria and Mexican beer.
Brunch on weekends, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., stars Mexican
Toast, cinnamon French Toast served with plaintains
and my favorite, Chilaquiles, scrambled eggs, tortilla
chips, beans, rice, cheese, cilantro, and salsa roja. Soon
the patio overlooking the Milwaukee River will be open,
and, when it does, I’ll be there.

California may have had Peggy
Magister early on in her career,
but we can thank Wisconsin for
bringing this native chef home.
Magister, co-owner of Crazy
Water, kept her Midwestern
practicality intact through her
education at the California Culinary
Academy and her stint at Wolfgang
Puck’s Postrio in San Francisco. “I
knew it was very expensive to live
out there and I also realized that to
get anywhere in the culinary world out there is very difficult, so I came home,” she says.
“Plus I missed my family.”
That move home was followed by the opening of The Fork in Cedarburg and then Crazy
Water in Walker’s Point a decade ago. But neither meant that Magister completely turned
her back on the West Coast.
“There are things that I really loved about it: The freshness of the food, the quality of the
produce, the love of comfort food and the fun of getting a little more creative,” she says.
“I brought that all back with me. Even now, when I do want to change things and get new
ideas, I take a trip back to Napa.”
Having recently returned from her latest trip, she’s recharging the Crazy Water menu for
spring, but she knows that a light hand is important. “Oh, people don’t like it when you
change the entrées,” she laughs. “I’m the same way, though. You find that certain thing on
the menu that you just love and you want to have it every time.”
Life’s been good, both for Crazy Water and for Magister, who earned her first nomination
as Best Midwest Chef from the James Beard Foundation last year. The restaurant expanded
to include a covered outdoor patio last year, and its cuisine continues to evolve with the
sophistication of its customers. That’s something Magister enjoys. “The dining public is
much tougher than it used to be,” she says. “You cannot miss a beat. They’re definitely more
knowledgeable than they used to be, but our customers are also very loyal and adventurous,
which is wonderful.”
And from her little galley kitchen in the former 19th century feed store, Magister continues
to impress.

occasionally, until reduced to 1 cup. Remove
and discard ginger and, over low heat, whisk
in creme fraiche. Season with salt and white
pepper. Sauce may be made in advance,
stored in refrigerator and rewarmed before
serving.
For the veal
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In medium bowl
whisk together Dijon and brown sugar. Season
veal with salt and pepper. Heat saute pan with
2 tablespoons olive oil. Sear veal on all sides.
Roll veal in Dijon mix and then in pistachios,
return to pan and place in oven for five to 10
minutes. Remove from oven and let rest for
two to three minutes.
Slice each tenderloin in six pieces and arrange
three slices on each plate. Drizzle sauce on
veal and serve with baby carrots and your
favorite potato dish.

There’s always Chuck E. Cheese for 6-year-
olds in need of sensory overload, but what’s
an adult to do when the urge is overpower-
ing for cavorting, playing games and some-
thing more substantial than cheese poppers?
Fear not, spring is here, with grown-up eat-
and-play options galore. Volleyball awaits.
As does bingo, indoor golf, fine wine, crab
cakes and pork sliders.
crab cakes with a truffle cream sauce and slow
roasted prime rib on Saturday and Sunday.
Go for the side of spinach salad for ensuring
power smashes on the volleyball courts.
SPiN Milwaukee
233 E. Chicago St., Milwaukee | (414) 831-7746
You only go around once in life, so you may
as well do it all at SPiN, a 16,500-square-foot
table-tennis social club with maestro-like table-
tennis courts on cushioned Olympic-competi-
tion flooring, plus a stadium-like center court.
SPiN Milwaukee houses a pro shop, restaurant,
bar, lounge and two private event rooms for
planning strategies. For a power meal, munch
on the duck confit augmented by baby spinach
with red onions, hard boiled eggs and hot
baked dressing; or a BLT with delightful Italian
bacon. Appetizers are big here, especially the
pecan-encrusted chicken fingers. So eat up
and watch, or eat, play, love. Table reservations
are suggested on weekends, with paddles and
balls with a rental. Ball boys and girls do the
picking. Tournament play attracts stellar com-
petitors from around southeastern Wisconsin
and even Chicago. Stay alert, maybe SPiN
co-owner/film star Susan Sarandon will drop in
for a round.
Potawatomi Bingo Casino
1721 W. Canal St., Milwaukee | (800) 729-7244
“Pot” is far cry from your grandma’s bingo hall,
providing live entertainment in a 500-seat the-
ater, along with the 3,100 slot machines, more
than 100 table games and specialty restau-
rants. As they like to say here when it comes
to food, “It’s not you vs. the house; it’s you vs.
the kitchen,” with the casino’s several restau-
rants serving steak, roast turkey, smoked beef
brisket, pizzas, rotisserie chicken, BBQ pork
ribs, fried shrimp, grilled steak tacos and stir
fried cashew chicken. Get up and close to the
poker and slots. Who knows, there could be
a sighting of the Herman’s Hermits and Peter
Noone or one of the other stars appearing in
the concert hall.
The Tracks Tavern & Grille
1020 E. Locust St., Milwaukee | (414) 562-2020
Regularly winning Riverwest’s best bar award,
The Tracks has three outdoor sand volleyball
courts where 140 coed teams play weekly
during the season. Teams are for beginner,
intermediate and advanced. Diners won’t get
railroaded on the food, either. The Tracks is
renowned for its neighborly Friday fish fry,
plattered either with cod, perch or shrimp.
The Wednesday fish fry has beer-battered,
locally caught bluegills, as well. There’s also
a Taco Tuesday, perfect for a pleasant spring
evening of people-watching on the outdoor
patio. Thursday is BBQ rib night with cheesy
potatoes and green beans for dining between
pinball and arcade game battles. Sliders are
big draws on Saturday and Sundays, along
with daily homemade soup, salads and yummy
wraps.

Dave & Buster’s
2201 N. Mayfair Road, Wauwatosa
(414) 454-0100
Whether during happy hour or not, seek out
D&B’s Million Dollar Midway with its plethora of
interactive simulators and video games. Pick
up a cue for billiards with one’s cutie, shuffle
off to shuffleboard or shoot some hoops. This
double-energized entertainment locale offers
a popular Eat & Play Combo, along with such
eatery winners as the Double Stacked Chicken
Parm Sandwich made up of two sautéed herb
breaded chicken breasts topped with melted
provolone. That, along with strip steaks, sir-
loins and mango shrimp skewers, is merely to
build strength for an arcade marathon.
The Horny Goat Hideaway
2011 S. 1st St., Milwaukee | (414) 482-4628
Pool tables, dart boards, various game ma-
chines, a 50-seat industrial outdoor bar facility,
flat screen high-def TVs, 68 umbrella-ed patio
tables and seating for 250 around the three fire
pits are only the start. There’s a boardwalk for
evening strolls along the river, plus boat slips
and docking capabilities, four sand volleyball
courts, pub trivia, live music, brewery tours.
And plenty of beer. The food selections range
from a monster hummus platter to pub burg-
ers. Go for dynamite cheese dog with Horny
Goat chili or try the Red Vixen BBQ pizza. A
sampler paddle with six of the brewery’s beers
attracts not only the Three Billy Goats Gruff but
also all their troll pals.
Libby Montana Bar and Grill
5616 W. Donges Bay Road, Mequon
(262) 242-2232
Libby’s excellent indoor sport facilities are
packaged within the 3,000-square-foot-plus
Volleydome where manicured sand has prob-
ably never seen a camel footprint. There are
three volleyball courts for coed, early-bird and
four-man matches; plus an outdoor bar and
picnic area for fine weather fun. Teams play
during the week but open volleyball is usually
available on weekends. Sandwiches, salads,
wraps, portobello mushroom ravioli, second-
day soup, half-pound baked potatoes, a wild
rice blend and entrées like meat loaf and
cornmeal-crusted walleye lift the menu out of
the mundane.
Olympia Resort
1350 Royale Mile Road, Oconomowoc
(262) 369-4999
Open to the public, Olympia now offers full
swing indoor golf where visitors can play

Reservations are suggested because there are
some blackout times. The resort’s Club Indigo
offers billiards, darts, dancing and specialty
drinks, along with Friday karaoke for Lake
Country revelers, plus a DJ on Saturdays, and
a regular comedy showcase. Rick’s Steak-
house presents a wide variety of eating options
after rounds of the aforementioned golf or a
spa workout. The resort is also linked to area
golf facilities, including the Olde Highlander
Golf Course on the resort grounds.
Saxe’s
S1767 Mickle Road, Genesee | (262) 968-4600
Tom and Lynn Saxe’s three lighted courts offer
top-quality sand matches. Now that’s its finally
the season to be outside, there are picnic
tables and a refreshment/concession stand to
enjoy while watching the competition. The Gla-
cial Drumlin Trail runs past Saxe’s, which sells
trail passes and offers free parking for cyclists.
Early rising hikers and winter snowmobilers

breakfast buffet. Also on the menu are risotto
