That structure still ex- ists as the upper boathouse and men’s locker room, and some of its exterior walls and windows are still visible from inside. “I’m sure you’ve noticed, but the existing structure has these gaps and places where one room doesn’t quite align with the next.

Born in Brooklyn in 1948, Barry moved to California at the age of 22 after completing an MBA at Columbia University. He settled initially in San Francisco where he worked in the banking industry for a few years before buying a house in San Anselmo and leaving the corporate world behind for good. Barry describes how in 1973 he discovered a passion for running, which set him on the path to his future work as a race announcer and author. He discusses the many books he has written, beginning with Best Running Trails of the San Francisco Bay Area (1978), his seminal Dipsea: the Greatest Race (1993), and the wonderful works of local history, including Mill Valley: the Early Years (1996), Marin: a History (2006), and To Save a Mountain: A 100-Year Battle for Mount Tamalpais (2012) that have established him as the great chronicler of the life, times, and personalities of Marin. Throughout this oral history Barry expresses his love of nature, devotion to preservation, and his passion for running along with the intimate joys provided by friendship and family.
