Born and raised in Chicago, Ms. Jemia Cunningham-Elder became passionate about education during college when she was exposed to slave narratives and other influential texts such as the autobiographies of Frederick Douglass and Malcolm X. Learning about the power of education, especially in the Black community, inspired her to dedicate her career to making positive change through supporting the education of others. 
She began her time at NLCP as the Director of External Affairs and was appointed to the position of CEO in September 2022. She is a graduate of Lake Forest College and holds a master’s degree in Leadership and Organizational Development from Boston College and a certificate in Nonprofit Management.

She has been married to Tom for 32 years and is the proud Mom of three adult children, all who are featured in her story.  She has recently joined the national craze and has taken up pickle ball and loves it. Katie gets charged up every week while working with 2nd and 3rd graders at Penn School in North Lawndale with the Open Books Reading Buddies. They are so fun!

To satisfy his wanderlust and adventurous genes, he has run around the world, having completed a marathon in all 50 states, and on each of the seven continents (yes, even with the penguins in Antarctica); and has climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro. He continues his quest for more exciting opportunities. He loves connecting with other OSP members and swapping tidbits about life. ​

Steve Cochran

Steve Cochran was born and raised in upstate New York near Ithaca, in the shadows of Cornell University.  The shadows of Cornell were the closest Steve came to an Ivy League education as he found out his grades were more suited to the Broadcasting School at Ithaca College. Over his career Steve has also done some silly acting in some small roles in some good films. Steve has performed with Jerry Seinfeld, Jay Leno, and Gary Shandling to name a few- or three and continues to headline several stand up comedy shows all around the Chicago area and the Midwest. Listen to the Steve Cochran show live weekday mornings from 5:30 – 9:00 a.m. on 890 WLS, wherever radio is streamed, and on all smart devices.
