Outlook Group Founder David Erdmann Remembered as ‘True Entrepreneur’

One of the founders of the Outlook Group, a large commercial printer that has been a top Fox Cities employer for many years, is being remembered for his entrepreneurial spirit, honesty and kindness. David Erdmann, 67, of Menasha (WI), died May 20 after a 2½-year battle with cancer.

Erdmann served as president of Outlook, which originally was located in Appleton, from the outset. Soon business growth and expansion prompted its relocation to the Town of Menasha, where it eventually grew to more than 1,000 employees. Erdmann led the way in 1991 when Outlook Graphics went public.
