The following is a list of authors who live or have lived on Bainbridge Island.  It is a 'list-in-progress', based on information gathered from diverse sources - Bainbridge Public Library (www.bainbridgepubliclibrary.org) volunteers, the Field's End (www.fieldsend.org/about.html) writing community, the Kitsap Regional Library (www.krl.org) book collection, the helpful staff at Eagle Harbor Books (www.eagleharborbooks.com), and various on-line sources. To read a short description of an author's work and links to their books, click on a name.  More authors are being added on a regular basis so keep checking back.  If you know of a Bainbridge author but don't see him or her on the list, or if you notice an error in one of the write-ups, email us at books4all@bifriends.org.
