Early life and education Gabriel Sherman grew up in Westport, Connecticut, the son of Raechelle Beth Kriger Thedinga and Leonard Sherman. His mother is a dietitian and nutritionist, and his father, a retired partner with Accenture, subsequently became an adjunct professor of marketing at Columbia Business School. and for New York magazine where he was a contributing editor. Sherman interviewed 600 people for the book, but did not have an interview with Ailes himself. Ken Kurson wrote that the Ze'ev Chafets' biography, Roger Ailes: Off Camera, released before Sherman's book, "does a better job penetrating the psyche of Mr. Ailes (Mr. Chafets had extensive access to the wizard), and Mr. Sherman’s book does a better job depicting the phenomenon of Fox News and its cultural meaning." Fox News has denied many of the events depicted in the book. The book led to a number of media reports about Fox and its culture. Jay Ambrose said that readers "should also not worry yourself to death about" The Loudest Voice in the Room because Ailes is a "fascinating if endlessly castigated man whose direction of Fox News divided nothing."

His book was turned into a miniseries, The Loudest Voice, starring Russell Crowe as Ailes. In the show, Sherman was played by Fran Kranz.
