Bill Barker

Bill Barker hails from what he likes to refer to as the greatest Garden State (New Jersey) in our union. The United States Navy sailed him out to the Evergreen State (Washington) a while back, washing him ashore as a civilian once more beside the sublime Salish Sea (for which he is most grateful) after a somewhat exhilarating seven-year stint in its storied submarine service. Bill has steadfastly refused to live anywhere else ever since. Bill has published two books: THE SOUND OF DIAMONDS (2022) and A FOUNTAIN OF FRIENDSHIP (2024).
