Meet Glenn Cort, author of “Letters to Mikey: Messages of Hope and Optimism.”  We tell the story  of a concerned loving parent who crafted a birthday letter to his son that evolved into an inspiring book.  Glenn offers insight into what drove him to seek out, fully research and reintroduce the wisdom of leading historical figures, from the ancient philosophers to our Founding Fathers to bold leaders of today, all of whose ideas about life have set the framework for a thriving civilization.  Glenn believes, and many agree,  that today’s generation of young people are adrift, desperately searching for hope, optimism and direction.   “Letters to Mikey” is one man’s mission to help his son and all children make sense of our world and better navigate the future!
