Joseph Frank Baraba
Joseph Frank Baraba was born in Brooklyn, New York but, six years ago,
he moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico. Joe’s many interests include artwork,
photography and gardening. In his teens, he loved to write poetry and
short stories and, many years later, he resumed his interest in
writing. Joe's first book, Is Your Father Black?, was published in 2005.
Is Your Father Black? is about Joey, a young boy
who loses his father at an early age and is later forced to deal with
the outside world because his stepfather is black. At first, Joey
doesn't understand why people stare and make snide remarks because he
doesn't know what color means. This is the story of anger and hate
between a sister and her brothers, and the family's thirty-four-year
journey that ends in bitterness and tragedy. |
Joe’s first children’s
book, Dusty, was published in 2006.
Dusty
is the charming story of a young boy, Timmy, and his pet cat. Early on
in the story, a bond is formed between boy and pet that cannot be
broken − although it is severely tested by Dusty's mischievous
curiosity! This is a delightful story that will appeal to adults as
well as children.
Joe's latest novel, Visions Of Freedom, will be released at the end of November 2009.
Adrian Gomez has lived under the grip of communism, he lives, breathes and yearns for his freedom from the grip of Fidel Castro's rein of terror and tyranny. When the day arrives his life becomes a living hell in a concentration camp. Will he survive his horrifying oppression and get his wish for freedom?
