About Roger

After stumbling around the wilderness of sports and city halls for seven years, Belleville's born-and-bred Roger Schlueter finally found his niche in Lifestyle in 1981. Helping start both the paper's medical and entertainment sections, he has dabbled in everything from food to religion for the past quarter-century. As the Answer Man since 1987, he has become the paper's go-to guy for arcane and unanswerable questions. He has even taken his show on the road, becoming a legend in his own mind as a popular emcee at area trivia nights.
