Kirtanananda Swami
The son of a Baptist minister, Kirtanananda Swami was born in 1937 and came to the Krishna consciousness movement in 1966. In 1967, at the famed Radha-Damodara temple in India's Vrndavana, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada conferred on him the sannyasa, or renounced, order (and hence the title "swami"), a first in ISKCON's history. Under Srila Prabhupada's guidance, he started New Vrindaban in 1968.
