Barry Walsh grew up in the heart of the ‘Great Metrollops’ during the 60s and thought belatedly that there might be a story in it. The result is The Pimlico Kid, a novel about first love. Danny Boy was published in January 2023.
​
Barry is a life-long Gooner who enjoys cycling, holidaying in France, listening to Neil Young and, occasionally, gazing at Audrey Hepburn’s face.

He is closely involved with an inner city youth club and believes that London might just be the centre of the universe. He is married with two daughters.
