Bernice T. Glenn
Glenn & Associates
Los Angeles, California
 

Bernice Glenn, after earning her MA from UCLA in computer/user interaction, worked as an information architect, developing web sites and applying user experience criteria to e-learning and information access. She is currently exploring the ways in which social media changes the way people access and act on information. As a corollary, Glenn is exploring how ease of access to digital media, which allows people to add to information within its data banks, may also distort the value of the information.

She is the co-author of several how-to books, including The Desktop Design Workbook (Prentice-Hall) and PowerPoint 4 for Windows QuickStart (Que Publishers).
