Who is the Government grant question mark guy or why is he named so? His real name is Matthew Lesko. His weird nickname came to be because he always appeared on T.V ads & on his web site, wearing a Riddler inspired suit. He is a self proclaimed researcher & expert in matters of US government grants & aids.
