Gary J. Gorman
President

A native of the Madison area, Gary Gorman received an Economics degree from the University of Wisconsin in 1977 and graduated from the UW Law School in 1980. He practiced real estate and securities law at a Madison-based firm for four years before founding Gorman & Company in 1984. His first two projects were small historic renovations in Evansville, Wisconsin, which utilized a complex mix of financing. After the Tax Reform Act of 1986, which created the affordable housing tax credit in Section 42, Gary put together a series of four private placements to capitalize the equity financing for some of the first projects utilizing the affordable housing tax credit in the State of Wisconsin.

Since that time, Gorman & Company has grown to be one of the largest users of the Section 42 tax credit in Wisconsin. The company currently employs more than 120 people, producing 300 new apartments per year through its in-house general contracting division. As President and CEO, Gary has broad responsibility for all operations of the company.

Gary is married with five children. He is an active member of the Madison community, currently serving on the Board of Directors for the Business Education Partnership. His past board involvements include the Madison Area Apartment Association and the Credit Bureau of Madison.
