Adam Salomon

Adam Salomon grew up in New Haven, CT and conceptualized his first book, "Blinded by the Sun," while attending high school. His knowledge of the music industry stems from working with a number of unsigned bands. Outside of his local music scene, he is known for political commentary through his blog Mind Over Madness. His non-partisan, solution-driven approach challenges many mainstream ideologies. As the son of a Parkland first responder and a retired inner-city teacher who had been confronted by a gunman outside of her classroom, Adam wrote "Post-Parkland: Are We Missing the Mark?" in response to the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. He is committed to bringing people together to discuss and implement policies that will ensure the safety of students and faculty. Originally from New Haven, CT, he now resides in Rhode Island with his wife and two young children.
