Meet the Publisher
Publisher Todd Lemke grew up in Papillion, Nebraska, and graduated from University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 1981 with a degree in journalism. Two years later he started a magazine called Omaha Today, which helped to springboard a 35-year career in magazine publishing. Omaha Magazine, under Todd’s leadership, focuses on the people and the positives that make Omaha a great place to live. Those positives include the philanthropic and cultural events around town as well as the abundance of business opportunities. Todd credits his staff with creating an award-winning magazine that has been recognized with regional Great Plains Journalism Awards, state AIGA (American Institute of Graphic Arts) awards, and local Omaha Press Club awards.
