Apart from all this, she is also the wife of a famous American sports TV and boxing commentator – Max Kellerman. The couple has been married for many years, and contrary to what is typical for celebrity marriages, there was no controversy afterward.
Here is their story as a couple; how they walked and walked through the tides of marriage as one couple. But first, we want to familiarize ourselves with everything there is to know about Erin.
Erin Manning – Bio
Erin was probably born sometime in the late 70s or 80s, her actual date and place of birth has remained a fact known only to her and perhaps to her husband in a broader sense. Likewise, she has not seen fit to reveal details of her family members, whether or not she has siblings, and what schools she attended before she went to college. Sadly, this is in contrast to her husband, whose background details are well known.

Erin started as a photographer quite early in life. After reading a book called “The Family of Man”, she became interested in photography. The book was an ambitious photographic exhibition curated by Edward Steichen, the Luxembourg-American painter, photographer, art gallery and museum curator. This happened when Erin was 7 years old, but even at such a young age, she knew that she wanted to make a career out of photography and pursued it.

Family – Husband, Kids
Sometime in 1994, Max Kellerman and his college sweetheart Erin Manning became husband and wife. Since then the two have been married without any negative stories after their marriage. Their union produced three children named Esther Kellerman, Sam Kellerman, and Mira Kellerman.

Their son Sam Kellerman was named after Max’s late brother Sam Kellerman. According to Max, the late Sam was the best writer of his age before his death. He was found dead in his apartment in the 1400 block of Vista Street in Los Angeles. After investigating what led to his death, James Butler, a former professional boxer (1996 to 2004), was arrested in connection with the murder.
