Who's Who Chicago: Centerstage People
Jennifer Wennig
A Chicago resident for a decade-plus, Jennifer longs for a more rustic existence and admittedly spends a tad too much time online looking at farmhouses for sale.

To make this dream a reality, she is currently developing a column and television show that will humorously, yet informatively chronicle her quirky attempts to learn how to inject her urban life with a bit more country (not western), in that ideal place where city and country intersect.

But for now, she continues her work as a freelance publicist cajoling media folks to write about whatever product or event of the moment she's pitching. Oh, the injustice.

Jennifer lives in Bucktown with her country boy (he's from Alabama) and their puppy Twyla.
