Herrmann was born in Cincinnati, May 3, 1859, the | son of Christian and Margaret (Mey- er) Herrmann, both natives of Ger- many. He claimed the “University of Hard Knocks” as his alma mater, for when he was 11 years old he shoul- dered with his brother, Charles, 12, the support of tl mother after their father had died. Fairness of judgment, ability as an | organizer and good business sense brought him into politics and civic activities in Cincinnati, but he sacri- ficed possibilities for a brilliant po- litical career to devote his life to baseball.
