Bob Cranmer Biography

Bob Cranmer is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on July 24, 1956 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States. In their time as administrators, Mike Dawida and Bob Cranmer also supervised the renovation and reconstruction of the famous Henry Hobson Richardson Allegheny County Jail designed in the latter part of the 1800s. The shabby and decaying structure was renovated to become the new home for the adult and juvenile families sections in Allegheny County Common Pleas Court. The $46 million that was spent on the reconstruction project was 23 times the cost of both Richardsonian Romanesque masterpieces, the jail and county courthouse.

In 1991, Cranmer was a candidate on the Brentwood council, claiming that he would open the opening of a new store in the Brentwood community. After his election, Cranmer realized that his campaign pledge was not as easy to fulfill when the chains of grocery stores he spoke to criticised the state of the present mall and the terrain on which it was situated. Knowing that the Brentwood Whitehall Mall was at a condition of degrading (and was on the brink of bankruptcy) He formulated the idea of establishing the economic development company (Brentwood Economic Development Corporation which was later expanded and changed to Economic Development South) to collaborate with developers to address the commercial requirements that were a part of Brentwood (specifically) which was later, it was expanded to include other communities located in and around the South Hills of Allegheny County.

In 1994, he was elected chairman of the Republican Party of Allegheny County. In October of that year Cranmer again gained the national spotlight when Teresa Heinz, the wife of the late Senator John Heinz, a Republican, and later wife of presidential candidate John Kerry, publicly endorsed Democratic incumbent Senator Harris Wofford, who had been appointed to the seat by Governor Bob Casey following her husband’s death. She called the Republican candidate, Congressman Rick Santorum, “Forrest Gump with an attitude” and labeled him much too conservative for Pennsylvania.

He led an effort to establish home rule in Allegheny County, which created the position of County Executive and County Council after coming to the conclusion that a new structure of government was needed. This initiative was based upon a study set into motion by former county commissioners Tom Foerster and Pete Flaherty in 1995. They had established a committee chaired by the then Chancellor of Duquesne University, John E. Murray Jr. called “ComPAC 21”, (The Committee to Prepare Allegheny County for the 21st Century). Their report laid the plan for a completely new organizational structure of county government. He also initiated the creation of the Allegheny County Airport Authority to manage the Pittsburgh International Airport in a more effective, professional manner.

The son of a retired military officer Cranmer completed his studies at Brentwood High School in 1974 and was awarded the bachelor of science qualification in secondary schooling and historical studies at Duquesne University in 1978. After serving as an United States Army officer where one of his duties was to be an officer in charge of the company with the 101st Airborne Division, he returned to Brentwood and was elected to the Brentwood Council in 1991.

Robert “Bob” W. Cranmer (born 1956 from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) is a businessman, veteran writer, politician, and author most well-known as a Former Republican County Commissioner from Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, between 1996 and 2000. Allegheny County is the second most populous county in Pennsylvania (1.3 million in 1996) after Philadelphia County. Its seat of government is Pittsburgh. The county is part of the Pittsburgh metropolitan area, the Pittsburgh DMA and Pittsburgh Tri-state region. He is the writer of the horror story The Demon of Brownsville Road.

There was a time when the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Pittsburgh Pirates sports teams occupied Three Rivers Stadium from 1970 until 2000. Following discussions about the possibility of Pittsburgh Pirates building a full-time baseball stadium, a plan was made to make improvements to Three Rivers Stadium into a full-time football stadium. Although this was met with a opposition from Steelers management, the idea was utilized as an “fallback position” that would be utilized if talks for the construction of a new stadium did not succeed.

He gained the attention of the national media in 1993 when he challenged the operating practices of the media giant TCI Cable. The firm, which had contracted with Brentwood to provide cable television services, added without notice or approval two explicitly adult (pay-per-view) channels, Playboy TV and Spice Networks, and was done to test market the service. When a subscriber television was turned on it would automatically “default” to one of the adult channels, each being lightly scrambled but still providing full uncensored audio. These “mechanical” features made contact with the channels unavoidable, making children vulnerable to programming designed explicitly for adult viewers.
