portrait of a graduate | Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School

A portrait—by definition and observation—is one of a kind. The same can be said of Brebeuf graduates.

In the summer of 2017, Josh Lebherz interviewed 21 Brebeuf graduates—learning about their careers, recording their high school memories and discovering the impact that Brebeuf had on their lives. Traveling across the country, he had something in common with the Bullpen Catcher for the Yankees, the Marianist Sister in Dayton, the NASA engineer in Houston, the R&B musician in LA and all the others. As a 1993 graduate, Josh also lived the Brebeuf experience.

For Josh and all those connected with Brebeuf since 1962, the meaning reﬂected in these pages—the Portrait of a Graduate—is of shared experience and pride in community. While the paths leading from Brebeuf fan out in many directions, there are common threads in the foundation that is men and women for others.
