With more than 30 years of international publishing and trade show experience, Barry is well known to trade show organizers, associations, USA pavilion organizers, exhibitors and publishers throughout the world. Having started his own companies, Gordon International and Monarch Publications, his trade show and association clients range in the dozens and his advertising clients range in the thousands. Known primarily in the international travel, tourism, IT, food & beverage, aerospace and medical industries, Barry has traveled extensively both domestically and internationally while having lived in Brussels, Rome, Amsterdam, New York City, New Jersey, Los Angeles, and Newburyport. He currently resides in the Tampa Bay, Florida area where he can pursue his dream of playing senior softball year round. Although the antithesis of the 5-tool ballplayer (no power, low average, weak arm, slow legs and error prone) he still manages to somehow get picked to play on a number of teams.

When not attending trade shows or playing softball, Barry enjoys visiting World War I, World War II and Civil War Battlefields; following in the literary footsteps of Ernest Hemingway; and rooting for his beloved New York Yankees much to the chagrin of his 5 long suffering children. He is rarely seen without his trusty companion and confidant, Nero, a 6 year old Havanese dog who is more human than canine.
