Because of parental pressure, she majored in psychology at Yale and received a law degree from New York University Law School. In addition, she wrote for the Law School Musical Comedy every year during her tenure at New York University.
Despite majoring in psychology, she was more interested in creative writing. So she enrolled in several writing courses. She always wanted to write for television shows. Although she wasn't a film student, she enjoyed it and figured it to make a career out of it.
So, as her friends studied for the bar exam, Cherry decided she was not cut out for the legal profession. Instead, she moved west, hoping to get into the television industry, and worked as an assistant for an agency, TV executives, and the writing team of the TV sitcom Listen Up. It was during those days where she saw how fleeting a program could be.

The eldest girl, Meg, is a social outcast and adolescent. The second child is Chris. Stewie, the youngest, is a brilliant kid who is hell-bent on murdering his mother and destroying the world.
"The great thing about a show like Family Guy is that you can be doing a joke about post-impressionist art one second, gay marriage the next, and 'Jersey Shore' the next. Everything is fair game," Cherry said about working on the Family Guy. Currently, she serves as the writer and the executive producer of the series.
