Barry Maher
Author | Syndicated Columnist
Barry Maher is the product of four years at the University of Notre Dame, an hour and a half in the graduate journalism at U.C. Berkley, and Five befuddled weeks at the Whopper College of the Burger King corp. In his misspent youth, his articles appeared in perhaps a hundred different publications and, in order to eat, he held nearly that many different jobs. Sometimes he lived on the beach. Not in a house on the beach. On the beach. With the sand and the seagulls.
Then he started telling his stories to audiences. More important, he started telling his stories to audiences and charging. That took him all over the country and around the world: his client list a Who’s Who of leading corporations, associations and cruise lines. You may have seen Barry on The Today Show or CNBC, or in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, USA Today or in his own, Slightly Off-Kilter syndicated column.
On the downside, he’s also been incarcerated twice. Once for not making a left hand turn out of a left hand turn lane, and once for aiding and abetting a loiterer. He’s deeply repentant.
