Bio
Glen Callender (center) on the cover of Xtra, Canada’s queer newspaper.
Vancouver-based writer, performance artist and activist Glen Callender is the proud owner of Canada’s most talked-about foreskin. In 2010 Glen founded the Canadian Foreskin Awareness Project—Canada’s feistiest pro-foreskin advocacy group—and under its auspices he has organized unprecedented pro-foreskin events, made multiple media appearances, and performed Foreskin Awareness Booth and The Revolution Will Not Be Circumcised across Canada and the USA. He is 39 years old.
Glen’s provocative foreskin advocacy has received national newspaper coverage in Canada’s National Post, the UK’s Daily Mail and Israel’s Haaretz. He has been interviewed by CBC-TV News, and shouted at via satellite on the Sun News Network’s The Arena With Michael Coren.
Glen has guested on Sirius XM’s Jay Thomas Show, HuffPost Live, Toronto NewsTalk 1010’s Friendly Fire and Beyond the Mic With Mike Bullard, CJAD Montreal’s Ric Peterson Show, Halifax News 95.7’s Maritime Morning, and Calgary AM770’s Rob Breakenridge Show. Overseas, Glen has been featured on NewsTalk Ireland’s Moncrieff.
In 2012, Glen modeled his foreskin for renowned botanist and male nude/landscape photographer Dr. Sherwin Carlquist’s acclaimed Natural Man photo series, selections from which were recently exhibited at the Leslie Lohman Museum of Gay and Lesbian Art in New York City.
Glen scripted critically-acclaimed dialogue for the Electronic Arts video game Need for Speed: Undercover (2008), and scripted radio chatter and cinematic dialogue for Need For Speed: The Run (2011). Glen is also the author of the extremely silly website That’s So Bi.
