Glen Greenwalt holds a PhD from Vanderbilt University and graduated Cum Laude from the New York Academy of Art. He has been teaching for over 20 years, currently as Adjunct Professor of Humanities at Shasta College in California. The drawings in the three books grew out of studied observations of people who come together for social contact at coffee houses, tea rooms, and bars. His quest was to explore and share this core experience of life through his drawings and the quotes he selected.
