Is ben a past tense?

Well, if Ben is a person, and he is deceased, then I would say he is past tense. However, if you are talking about language, you might be referring to the word "been," which actually could be past, present, or future perfect progressive tense along with had or have. Examples: I have been reading (present perfect progressive). She had been reading (past perfect progressive). By that time, we will have been reading for a week (future perfect progressive).
