Andrew David Barker is an author and filmmaker. Born in Derby, England in 1975, Barker has had pretty much every job going. In his time he has worked as a window fitter, a rail track worker, a factory worker, a carpet salesman, a car cleaner, a delivery driver, a bricklayers' labourer, a shop assistant, and a care worker, among others. None of them stuck. In the late 90s he played lead guitar in a rock band. They got signed, made a single, played London, thought they were famous, and, subsequently, imploded. As a filmmaker he wrote and directed the little seen opus, A Reckoning – a last man on earth tale which won acclaim from many who saw it - and has made several award-winning short films, including Laura Living Backwards and Shining Tor. He is also a co-screenwriter on the forthcoming feature, The Wilding, and the writer/director of The House on Lidderman Street. He is the author of The Electric, Dead Leaves, Winter Freits, The Winterman, and Society Place, and is an Arts Council Grant recipient for his writing. He now lives in Warwickshire with his wife and daughters, trying to be a grown up.
