Creator of the PostSecret Project Frank Warren
Frank Warren is the sole founder and curator of the PostSecret Project, a collection of over 200,000 highly personal and artfully decorated postcards mailed anonymously from around the world, displaying the soulful secrets we never voice. Warren’s first book, “PostSecret: Extraordinary Confessions from Ordinary Lives” (ReganBooks) is a “New York Times” best-seller. He followed it up with “My Secret: A PostSecret Book”, “The Secret Lives of Men and Women: A PostSecret Book”, and his most recent, “A Lifetime of Secrets.”
In 2006, his PostSecret web site (which receives over 3,000,000 visitors every month) was awarded six weblog awards including “Best American Blog” and “Blog of the Year.” “The Washington Post” called his traveling exhibition of PostSecret cards “one of the five best art shows in 2005”. Warren has appeared on “Today”, “20/20”, CNN, MSNBC, CBC, NPR, and Fox News. “USA Today” called Warren, “An award-winning blogger, a first-time author, an artist with a traveling exhibit, a possible documentary subject, the inspiration for a music video and the all-around media ‘it’ boy of the moment.” In 2009, “Forbes” magazine listed him as the number four most popular “web celeb,” behind celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, tech blogger Michael Arrington and Kevin Rose, the founder of Digg.com.
