H.P.'s Bio

     H.P. Barrett III was born in Charleston, SC, in 1951 and spent the first 30 years of life on the move across America and the world to live, learn and experience a treasure trove of jewels that bedeck each and every writing project.

     The son of a U.S. Naval career officer, H.P. himself enlisted in the navy in 1970 and spent the next four years primarily in foreign ports and lands. From Australia to the Bering Sea; from the Tonkin Gulf and Sea of Japan to the shores of Mexico, California, Washington and Alaska, there was a lesson to be learned and a story to tell.

     Early education in Honolulu was completed in the post-service years at the University of Hawaii where he earned degrees in Journalism and Political Science. In 1995, he attended Georgia Christian College (Athens, GA) to begin work on a Masters Degree in Religious Studies, and the educational process continues.

     After a media career that encompassed newspapers, radio, television magazines and now the Internet, Barrett has turned to full-time freelance writing and editing as he works on a novel and writes and collects his published poems for a planned upcoming volume.

     He currently lives and writes out of the state of Texas and has one daughter, Anna Baron Naeko Barrett, attending Central Florida University in Orlando.
