About the Author
Raised in a border town of the Cattauraugus Seneca Indian Reservation where his father was chaplain at the Indian school, Glenn Schiffman has lived around and with American Indians all of his life. He has Vision-Fasted 12 times, sat in on numerous traditional healing ceremonies, has been a fire keeper at 15 Sun Dances and danced in 8 others. Since 2010 he's been a Pipe-Keeper of a traditional Sun Dance on the Pine Ridge Reservation.

Glenn has told instructional, inspirational and healing stories from Native American traditions at each Equinox and Solstice for over 15 years around a Medicine Wheel in Malibu CA. He is compiling these stories into a series of Coloring Storybooks illustrated, designed and co-published with Deborah L. Brown and Barbara Schiffman of ColoringJournalsforHealthyLiving.com.

He has self-published several works of creative fiction, including THE WAY I WAS TAUGHT, an autobiographical novel (available on Amazon.com), and a DVD on The Thanksgiving Prayer of the Iroquois Peoples. THE WAY I WAS TAUGHT was chosen as an Eric Hoffer Book Award 2014 Finalist.

As a co-founder of Western Gate Roots and Wings Foundation, he works with uninitiated youth and adult men as well as returning veterans in collaboration with Native Elders and counselors at Home Boys Industries.

His academic degrees include a BA in History from Knox College, an MFA in Creative Writing from San Francisco State, and a Masters in Spiritual Counseling from the University of Santa Monica.
