About Jenn Granneman, the founder of Introvert, Dear
Hi fellow introverts and sensitive people! I’m the author of two books: The Secret Lives of Introverts, a manifesto for all the “quiet ones,” and Sensitive, an Amazon Best Book of the Year.
An educator and a journalist, I’ve been featured in the NY Times, the Washington Post, Oprah Daily, the Guardian, and more.
I started Introvert, Dear in 2013 because I wanted to write about what it was like being an introvert living in an extrovert’s world. My mission is simple: to empower introverts and sensitive people to embrace their strengths — and to start seeing their nature as a good thing.
Since embracing my own introversion and sensitivity, I live a pleasantly boring life with my son in St. Paul, Minnesota.
