Actor and entrepreneur Kenyon Glover relocates from Los Angeles to Atlanta

Former Los Angeles-based actor and entrepreneur Kenyon Glover has officially relocated to familiar surroundings in Atlanta, GA. Glover, a former pro athlete-turned-model and actor, has been involved with film since 2007 following an injury that brought his professional basketball career to a halt. A native of Monroe, Louisiana, Glover resided in Atlanta for several years after leaving pro sports.

œI love L.A., says Glover, œbut the time is ripe for a fresh start in a different [professional] climate. Besides being my second home, opportunities abound in Atlanta. It's simply time to come back home...to give back to the community that gave to me.

Glover brings with him an impressive resume of over 50 films, many of which were produced by his production company, Kenyon Glover Film Productions . He recently made his directorial debut with the film League of Redemption, in which he also stars and produced. League tells the story of three men who seek redemption of past sins by helping others. Two additional films are currently in production: Obsidian, in which he plays a ninja assassin; and Taste of Compassion, the story of a young girl who develops a meaningful relationship with a war vet. Filming for Compassion will commence this summer. A third project, Lethal Danger, is scheduled to shoot in Rome, Italy, in the fall.

Besides the recent launch of his new clothing line (called League of Distinguished Gentlemen), Glover is also a motivational speaker on matters pertaining to depression, a topic with which he is most familiar: following a sports injury that brought an end to his career, Glover suffered depression and even attempted suicide. Today, this motivational speaker talks on this oft-secretive topic in hopes of helping others rise above the stigma of depression. In addition, he speaks to young people on the importance of œPlan B, or having a backup plan for those times in life when things don't go as expected.
