Jerry Bruno
Jerry was a blue collar worker from Wisconsin who got involved in local politics. He then worked in state politics, and ultimately in a variety of national campaigns to include both JFK and RFK. Despite not having finished high school he had an incredibly sharp mind for politics and was an exemplary advance man. Along with Jeff Greenfield he wrote the book, "The Advance Man." As a political science under graduate in the early 70's I was fortunate to take two courses which he taught at the State University of New York at Oswego. I learned more about real politics from Jerry than from all my other professors combined. A great guy. Down to earth, and always willing to share his vast knowledge and experiences on several national campaigns.
