Ben Glenn
Ben Glenn was diagnosed with dyslexia and other learning disabilities while in grade school. As an adult he also learned that he has ADHD and suddenly everything about his life made perfect sense.
Dropping out of college to pursue a love of art and speaking, Ben has been on the road, full-time since 1995, traveling to every part of the United States as well as to more remote places like China and Australia. He blames his ADHD… but secretly, he’s happy about it.
Ben is the published author of seven books and the founder of Indiana’s Build It Again Bricks project. He lives in Indianapolis, Indiana with his wife and two daughters.
