Craig Shireman

Craig has made his home in Washington, DC for the past 17 years and he is a member of Augustana Lutheran Church. Born in Columbus, IN, he grew up in nearby Seymour, graduated from Emerson College in Boston, MA, and spent most of his adult life working in television broadcast journalism in Tampa, FL. He now works in real estate in Washington, DC and Virginia. Over 10 years ago, Craig founded the broadcast ministry ALBUM (Augustana Lutheran Broadcast oUtreach Ministries). He enjoys researching his genealogy and has discovered his family has been German-Lutheran since the year 1560. He is also a big fan of the Washington Capitals, Washington Nationals, and DC United. Craig looks forward to visiting Germany again to explore Lutheran heritage sites and travel with his mother, who will celebrate her 80th birthday during this time.
