Author: Anthony Barbera

Anthony Barbera, an Amazon best-selling top 100 author, began his career as a music composer for films and commercials. He earned his B.M. in Music Composition from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts. Working on his Master’s Degree at the University of Massachusetts, he won numerous awards, placing first at the B.M.I. National Music Awards. The first prize included the performance of his “Two Songs for Soprano and Orchestra on Poems by Rilke” by the North Carolina Symphony Orchestra.   And yet, during that time, Anthony’s passion for literature and writing was unstoppable. After being asked to direct a collection of ambitious teenagers in writing and acting in their first film for the Sonoma Film Festival, he was hooked.   In order of publication, Anthony’s novels are ‘Catching Baby Moses,’ ‘The First Rains of October,’ ‘Jonah In the Time of the Kings,’ ‘Assurity: A Space Thriller,’ and ‘Izzy the Bernese Mountain Dog.’ His newest biblical historical novel “Elijah, the Man Who Stopped the Rain,” is scheduled for release in 2023.
