Barbara Harbula was born in Baltimore, Maryland and has been an educator for over forty years. She has taught most grades from Kindergarten to Higher Education, focusing on using technology in the classroom.

Her career as an author started when her 4th graders were involved with a project in Kidlink to write a mystery story with kids in Denmark, South Africa, and the Maryland Eastern Shore. Beaumont Publishing requested her and John Ost to write the Scribes Online series to teach students to utilize the computer to learn to write.

Currently, Barb is working on a series of children’s books about a misplaced prairie dog named Chipper and his experiences in life. Look for The Race Underground: Chipper the Misplaced Prairie Dog, Digs Against Time to be published soon!
