An Interview with David Barker

The Letterpress Project has asked authors and illustrators to think about what has inspired them as artists, what their favourite books are and how they relate to their audience - we've also asked them if they themselves are book collectors.

We are delighted to present an exclusive interview with author, David Barker. David is the author of the London Falling series.

He has been writing stories for over ten years, after many years working as an economist. He is a graduate of the Faber Academy, a member of the Society of Authors, and SCBWI.

David lives in Berkshire with his wife and daughter. When he’s not writing or reading stories, he loves to play tennis and golf, watch films or play board games.
