Greg Gerber bio

Greg Gerber, the founder of Forward From 50, is a Wisconsin native who moved to Arizona in 2009.

A journalist by trade, he founded Forward From 50 after realizing too many seasoned citizens were not living up to their potential in a way that took advantage of their natural talent, learned skills and unique life experiences.

Greg has a bachelor’s degree in public relations from the University of Wisconsin – Whitewater. He edited a weekly newspaper while serving in the U.S. Air Force, and edited several monthly business-to-business magazines.

In 2009, Greg created the RV industry’s first entirely-online news site, which also included the industry’s first business-related podcast in 2014.

He is a DODO (Dad of Daughters Only) to three grown daughters, and has five grandchildren living in Wisconsin, Illinois and Texas.
