Life

[edit]

As a 17 year old Detroit high school student, Barry received national press coverage for protesting the Vietnam war.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] Newsweek quoted him in a 1966 article on "The Teenagers" as saying "I got my hair cut. But now they are regulating ideas and I can't get my ideas cut."[11] Another publication on the attitudes of 1966 teenagers, The young adult; identity and awareness also quoted him on this.[12]

Barry Biesanz moved to Costa Rica in 1971 and founded Biesanz Woodworks in 1972.[13]
