Early life and background
Born in Paterson, New Jersey and raised in nearby Clifton, Kramer graduated in 1980 from the Montclair Kimberley Academy, a secondary school in Montclair, New Jersey, where he played varsity ice hockey from 1977 to 1980. In the latter year, Kramer was the leading scorer in the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletic Association and a first-team All-State selection. In 2008, he returned to Montclair Kimberley as head coach of the team.

Kramer earned a bachelor's degree in 1984 from Hamilton College in Clinton, New York, where he continued playing ice hockey. He then coached the junior varsity team at Hamilton for one year. Following his time at Hamilton, Kramer took up the game of golf.

Career
In 1995, Kramer founded an organization called Inner Sports, which mentors performers, athletes, coaches, and organizations on one's true nature, or Consciousness, and its bearing on performance. Kramer often conducts seminars and day-long workshops for the general public about exploring the nature of Self and its implications. Kramer has appeared WFAN, WOR, ESPN, FOX, NBC, Golf Channel, CBS, and CTV.

Authorship
Kramer is the author of three books, Stillpower: Excellence With Ease in Sports and Life (ISBN 978-1582703886), which argues that knowing thyself is more important [in performance] than having a command of the skills and behaviors needed, The Path of No Resistance: Why Overcoming Is Simpler Than You Think (ISBN 978-1-62634-117-3), and True Self: Notes on the Essence of Being (ISBN 978-1626347779).

All-star ice hockey player Zach Parise wrote the foreword to Stillpower and told Sports Illustrated in 2010 that he often seeks Kramer's counsel about handling the ebb and flow of life on and off the ice.

Personal
Kramer lives in New Jersey with his wife and three children.
