J. Leonard Costner: The Legacy Series 05/16/2026
from Saturday Morning Magazine with Bruce Ferrell
The son of a former professional basketball player, J Leonard Costner stands at 6′ 6″. Many thought the New Jersey-born, Europe-raised Costner would follow in his father’s footsteps as a pro. However, injuries derailed his hoop dreams but those were not his only aspirations.Recalling that time, Costner said, “While I was recovering from having my pelvis reconstructed due to a basketball injury, I had a recurring dream every night for a month. I started to jot down what I was seeing, and eventually that turned into my first book, which was published in 2012.”From those nights, the “Legacy” series and universe were born.Costner shared that while books are a different medium compared to studio art, the series evolved to become something like an art gallery, but in book form.
