Barbara Bentley grew up in
Northern California in a middle-class, blue collar town. She graduated summa cum laude with a BS in Marketing and was the Outstanding Undergraduate of the Business School
at Golden Gate University. When Bentley decided to write A DANCE WITH THE DEVIL to help others, she didn't realize the story was
not complete and that, with passion, planning, patience and
persistence,
she would go on to change the no-fault divorce law of California. What
she did realize was that she needed to learn how to write. She read books, joined writing organizations, and attended writing workshops.
Bentley willingly shares her experience whenever the opportunity arises. She is a motivational speaker who has spoken to audiences numbering from ten to five hundred for such diverse organizations. Bentley’s story generates public interest and was featured on the Lifetime Television show FINAL JUSTICE hosted by Erin Brockovich. She was featured on DATELINE NBC in"The Years of Living Dangerously." Her story has also been filmed for the Canadian show THE DEVIL YOU KNOW series and a Washington, DC, company for the WHO THE BLEEP DID I MARRY SERIES. The shows air periodically.
Bentley believes she is one person who can make a difference. It is only by continuing exposure of the psychopath’s techniques that the public can protect themselves from becoming another victim. Bentley could never have imagined her recovery would be so hard won, or that a psychopath would be so hard to lose.
Bentley lives on the West Coast with her husband of twenty years and their cat Sierra. She and her husband are award-winning home wine and label makers who have a passion for travel and photography. You can learn more about their wine hobby and Barbara's award winning wine labels, along with travel photos, and wine poetry at the following sites:
