...may be a number of things. A recent Minneapolis Public Radio article--which, interestingly, names my friend Brian Reichow in the same article--describes Chism as the director of a non-profit. There is also a Lennie Chism who turns up as a realtor in Minneapolis, but it's unknown if that is the same Lennie Chism.
In writing a review of the Minneapolis realtor named Lennie Chism, a woman named Susan Gordan gave him a rating of "One Star" and wrote, "This particular gentleman is shady and I would never use him again. I ended up filing a judgment against him."

He's kind of a nut, but not in a bad way. He's not unpleasant or violent or anything. He's just excitable. He shouldprobably to switch to decaf.
