I’ve written over 200 published articles and fiction stories.

Info Nuggets

• I speak Russian and worked as Assistant to Georgi Vins, the famous Russian preacher who spent 8 years in Soviet prisons and labor camps before being exiled to the U.S. as part of a dramatic prisoner swap in 1979.
• In 2015, I toured deserted buildings in and around Chernobyl, Ukraine, the site of the 1986 nuclear disaster.
• Confession: I first tried my hand at novel writing while a 5th grader. I called it quits after two paragraphs and wadded up the evidence of that attempt!
• My Dad, Tom Barry, became a pilot during his teenage years in the 1940s. As a result, I grew up around airplanes, airports and air shows. That background influences my writing to this day.
