           Marty Barrack was born a New York City Jew in 1942. He grew up in the Bronx and married his wife Irene in 1967.  He earned his M.A. in political science in 1969, and went on to work for the U.S. Customs Service as an inspector; then an import specialist; then as a communications specialist.  In 1985 he moved to the U.S. General Services Administration where he did government-wide policy analysis in computers and communications.  At that time he also completed his first book, How We Communicate: The Most Vital Skill, published by Glenbridge Publishing, Ltd., in Lakewood, Colorado.  On Easter Vigil 1989, Marty was baptized into the Catholic faith.  Jesus used that book to give him his mission for the rest of his earthly life: "Communicate My Word as far and wide as you can."   Marty's completion in Christ soon led him to realize that the Catholics have prepared only minimal help for Jews who seek to become Catholic.  He set out to write a book that would highlight the Jewish origins of the Catholic faith so that inquiring Jews would see the continuity between them.  The result is Second Exodus.
