Early life

Hershman grew up on a farm in Jasper County, Indiana, which he still manages. After graduating from Purdue University with a degree in Political Science, Brandt took a job working in the White House. In 1991, a family friend, Steve Buyer, asked for help in his run for Congress. After winning in 1992, Brandt became the district operations director for Buyer.

Political career

Hershman was first elected to the Indiana Senate in 2000 and was re-elected in 2004, 2008, 2012 and 2016. He served as the Majority Floor Leader and represented Senate District 7, which includes parts of White, Tippecanoe, Jasper, Clinton, Carroll and Boone counties.

He co-authored the Major Moves transportation bill and has won numerous awards for his work with telecommunication deregulation and small business in Indiana.[9]{{citation needed|date=January 2018}}
