Glenn was born on his father's Cherokee allotment in what is today Hanson, Oklahoma. After graduating from High School in 1935, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy and was honorably discharged from the Navy Submarine Force. After Pearl Harbor, he enlisted as an aviation cadet in the USAF and was commissioned a Second Lieutenant as a Navigator. Subsequently, he also qualified as a Bombardier, and was honorably discharged as a Captain in 1946.
Glenn led reform movements that led to a statewide re-registration of voters and the incarceration of a corrupt Tulsa Co. commissioner which brought about his election to the Oklahoma House of Representatives.
When his health prevented his activity in other fields, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to his quest for family history. His written stories are drawn from those he heard as a youngster from the older members of his family.
Glenn was a member of the First Families of the Twin Territories and was also a citizen of the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma. He and his wife of more than 50 years lived in Oklahoma City until his death in 1995. - Excerpt from Glenn's biography
Glenn died of Carcinoma of the Lungs and was cremated Oct. 5, 1995. - Death certificate. He has a headstone in Hawkins Flat Cemetery on Black Mountain, next to Delilah Cox Hawkins
