Glen Clark grew up midway between Cleveland and Pittsburgh.
After a number of jobs at small stations during high school, Glen
was appointed as Chief Engineer of G98 in Cleveland. Two years
later, Glen was appointed as Chief Engineer of ABC's WLS-FM in
Chicago.

After two years with ABC, Glen attended Purdue University and
graduated from Penn State with a BSEE. His goal in college was
to gain the math background required to understand Bob Orban's
non-ringing filters in the Optimod.

In 1981, Glen started TEXAR Incorporated and was the designer
of the TEXAR Audio Prism, the RCF-1 and the Phoenix broadcast
audio processors. Glen and his partners sold TEXAR seven years
later to Gentner Electronics.

Following the sale, Glen purchased a Cray supercomputer and
began designing AM directional antennas, obtaining FCC Construction
Permits for 50 kilowatt power increases for broadcast clients in Boston,
Detroit, Baltimore, San Francisco and Los Angeles. In 2004, the Cray
was retired and replaced with a cluster-computer consisting of 100
Pentiums.

Today, Glen uses the Pentium cluster to identify hidden patterns in
the price movement of the stock market, allowing him to trade stock
options for a living.
