Barry Brock

Personal Bio

Barry J. Brock has a background in both academics and the military. As a college professor for
over twenty-five years at Barry University, he created two programs, developed sixteen courses,
and taught a variety of subjects in Business, Public Administration and Health Sciences. Barry
has had the pleasure of presenting his research and papers at Cambridge University, the
University of Konstanz, and the University of Prague. And yes, he’s always been asked if Barry
University is his university.
While Barry has reduced his university load considerably, he still works part-time as an
Educational Consultant with the American Council on Education, where he helps evaluate
military training and education for civilian college credit.
As a Navy officer, Barry was responsible for the effective planning and operations of Medical
Services in various regions and combat zones, including Kuwait and Afghanistan, and served in
some more pleasurable places including Hawaii, Germany, Turkey and England.
Barry has always considered himself as a life-long learner, and has read practically every book
written devoted to screenwriting in addition to completing Call Sheet Media’s Mentor Program.
As a result of the COVID shutdown, Barry retired from his full-time teaching role and began to
concentrate on what he enjoyed the most: writing and creating. Since then, Barry has developed
four screenplays (three which have reached the finalist stage in competitions) and one stage play
(member Dramatist Guild of America). More projects are in development, so stay tuned.
Barry has a BS in Business Administration from the University of Alabama, a Master of Public
Administration from the University of West Florida, and a Doctor of Education from the
University of Central Florida.
