Marcus Glenn was born in 1968 in Detroit, Michigan. His introduction to art was at the age of 5 when his kindergarten teacher asked him to illustrate a board that was in the classroom. Finding his passion, he decided to go to art school, attending the Center for Creative Studies (now College for Creative Studies) in Detroit. Glenn credits his artistic skills as God-given ability and to studying artists like Picasso, Jacob Lawrence, Romare Bearden, Benny Andrews and Ernie Barnes.
