Douglas Carnine, a professor emeritus from the University of Oregon, began his pursuit of scientific research, instructional design, mindfulness/meditation and martial arts when he was 21. His academic career focused on failure-to-thrive children and lead to him receiving the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Council for Exceptional Children and a Presidential appointment (confirmed by the US Senate) to the National Institute for Literacy.
After retiring, he became curious about the importance of kindness from serving as a hospice volunteer and working with men convicted of murder. After reviewing the research on kindness and discovering the importance of kindness in all the world religions, he decided to devote his writing and his advocacy to making the importance of mindful kindness more prominent. He originally co-ordinated the Lane County Spreading Kindness Campaign and now is founder and president of the Choose Kindness Foundation, Choosekindnessfoundation.info. The Foundation receives all the proceeds from the sale of his three books on mindful kindness (Saint Badass: Personal Transformation in Tucker Max Hell, How Love Wins, and Lasting Happiness: A Guide for Teens and Youth Adults).
