Andrew Glenn is a true Renaissance man, having made significant contributions to the arts in theater, literature, and music in his forty-five-year career. He is mentioned in Annette Lust's From the Greek Mimes to Marcel Marceau and Beyond, and his poetry has appeared in the Pulitzer Prize-winning Winning Hearts and Minds: An Anthology of Vietnam War Era Poets. In the '80s, after a career in modern dance, he established the Mime Theater of Andrew Glenn in Seattle, Washington. His creations had appeared in the Moscow Festival for the Arts in 1990, and he has appeared on TV in California and Washington and performed in the choreography of Martha Graham. Returning to singing, his first love, he established House of Song, giving over six hundred recitals. In 2001, he sang German lieder for the German cultural attaché to the UN in Philadelphia. Gardens of the King is his second novel. He lives half the year in Saint Paul, Minnesota, and the other half in Marburg, Germany, where he is an active translator of German poetry.
