Jon Stanton

Jon Stanton is a 1994 graduate of Ovid-Elsie High School (Jim’s alma mater!!!) and has a degree in communications from Siena Heights University. He has worked in communications and marketing, as well as nonprofit administration, for more than 20 years. His book, “FAT: A Life Unfiltered” was recently endorsed by New York Times bestselling author, Tosca Lee, who had this to say about it:

“FAT: A Life Unfiltered brings us face-to-face with the reality of what it’s like to be big in a culture that condones all the behaviors that lead to obesity then shames the result. Jon Stanton wades into this uncomfortable topic with rare humor and humility. His honest look at the inner and outer struggles of weight will cause you to laugh out loud and choke back tears. Highly recommended. A must-read for everyone who eats.”
