Meet the Author
John Byrne Barry wrote his first book-length project in fifth-grade at Kilmer School in Chicago—a 140-page treatise on dinosaurs. One page for each dinosaur, and lots of white space. He’s been writing ever since—magazine and newspaper stories; political comedy; advice columns (Question the Authority and the Lazy Organic Gardener); and more. He’s even written for a seed catalog. His first novel, Wasted, is a murder mystery set in the garbage/recycling universe in Berkeley, California.
He lives in Mill Valley, California, with his wife and family.
