Born in Tucson (1937), Arizona and raised in Salt Lake City, Utah, George Barr has lived the last thirty five years in California: Los Angeles, San Jose, and - currently - Livermore. He discovered science fiction (AMAZING STORIES Magazine) at age thirteen and has declared, "It was like finding my way home."
