Located along Lake Michigan about 2 hours north of Chicago, the city of Milwaukee, Wisconsin is the largest city in the state, hosting a greater metro population of over 1.7 million people. While famous for its brewing industry, Milwaukee's economy also includes manufacturing and commerce, serving as international headquarters for such large corporations as Kohls, Harley-Davidson, Briggs & Stratton, Evinrude, and Master Lock, among others.
Milwaukee also has significant connections to the film industry, having been home to a long list of actors (including Gene Wilder and Spencer Tracy), as well as filmmakers Will Zens, Jim Abrahams, and David and Jerry Zucker. Talk show host-turned-media mogul Oprah Winfrey also spent some of her childhood here.
Besides being home to numerous production companies, Milwaukee is regularly the site for location shoots for movies, TV shows, documentaries and specials. Some of the movies that have been filmed in the area include Public Enemies, The Blues Brothers, Dahmer, Major League and Transformers: The Dark Side of the Moon, to name a few. Among the TV shows or series that have done filming in Milwaukee are WWF Raw, and of course the classic sitcom Laverne & Shirley, whose main characters worked in one of Milwaukee's breweries.
