  • Bryan M. Byrd, a Washington, D.C. native, inherited his love for words from his mother, a violinist and writer. His career in telecom, hi-tech, and psychology included diverse writing pursuits, but he broke free from conventional work early on.
  • Adventure often took precedence over authorship, leading him to global travels, including multiple completions of the 1,400-mile Tour de Thailand. He has explored 48 U.S. states, Canada, the Caribbean, Europe, and beyond.
  • A pivotal voyage came when he helped sail a boat from the U.S. to the Virgin Islands, a journey that extended to Trinidad and back. This experience inspired his debut auto-fiction novel, Surviving Paradise: The Perils and Pleasures of the Caribbean, with more works on the horizon
