National & North: New York native living the American Dream

In 1997, Social Psychology Researcher Arthur Aron conducted a study on human connection.

Almost 20 years later it became popularized as The 36 Questions That Lead To Love.

So here in Milwaukee, we chose 8 strangers from two of our longest streets to answer these questions -- on camera.

It’s time to meet your neighbor, and maybe even love them too.

88Nine Presents: National & North

Produced by: Laura Kezman and Nate Imig

All music in the series by: Q The Sun

National & North is brought to you by Educators Credit Union.
Intersection: National Ave. & 147th

Age: 57

Occupation: Doctor of Podiatric Medicine

 

Yollande moved to Milwaukee from the African country Cameroon to obtain her second graduate degree. Her first Milwaukee address was on North Avenue and she now owns an African fusion restaurant on the same street.

Her energy is magnetic, and she radiates love.

I just don't think there's enough love and caring in the world. There just isn't.

A Jewish Long Island native, Steve grew up in a post-WWII world adjusting to life in America after The Holocaust.

The baby boomer studied podiatry across the United States, eventually settling with his family in New Berlin and starting his own practice right off National Avenue.

North Avenue has been a pillar, a pivotal street in getting me grounded in Milwaukee.
