Glenn Foster

Founder

D. Glenn Foster, the father of The Kinesic Interview Technique, is recognized as the leading exponent, practitioner and teacher of the renowned interview and interrogation system.

A born teacher, Glenn put his B.Sc. from Auburn University and his M. Ed. to good use teaching high school in Georgia until the financial demands of a young family found him turning to police work. Serving first with the Atlanta Police Department and then as a polygraph examiner, Glenn launched himself into his life-long study of the deceptive behaviors of humans in stress.

Glenn and Frederick C. Link originated The Kinesic Interview Technique. The publication in 1980 of their book of the same name established the early fundamental Kinesic principles.

Glenn continued to develop The Kinesic Technique while working as a consulting investigator/interviewer for law enforcement agencies and private organizations. As his reputation for effortlessly extracting information that solved cases spread, so did the demand for him to pass on his interview and interrogation techniques to legal and law enforcement officers.

Over the last 35+ years Glenn has instructed thousands of law enforcement personnel from agencies as diverse as US Army counter intelligence and the US State Department, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and Mexican Police Kidnapping Units, State Farm and Blue Cross Blue Shield fraud investigators, Bomb Squad officers and Arson investigators, encompassing federal, state and local law enforcement departments. He has also taught professional bodies of judges, trial attorneys, psychiatrists and psychologists and has lectured in Europe on behavioral analysis.
