About Bernie

Bernard N. Lee, Jr. grew up in the fifties and sixties, following World War II and the Korean Conflict. His family traveled around the United States and lived abroad due to his father’s career in the U.S. Army. Bernard’s military upbringing and the adventures that life afforded him shaped his sense of shared sacrifice and love of country. Bernard studied engineering at Cameron Junior College in Oklahoma and Howard University in Washington, D.C.

While attending Howard, Bernard followed in his father’s footsteps, joining the Army ROTC and earning a regular Army commission. He later retired as a Captain from the Army Reserves. After a successful career at AT&T, Bernard taught high school for four years before retiring to the Atlanta metro area with his wife. Bernard is a director of the “How Big Is Your Dream?!” Foundation, which prepares young adults for careers in the music and the arts industries. He also conducts summer reading classes and teaches chess strategy to teens in a local academy. A Look Back in Time, Vol. 2: Memoir of a Military Kid in the 50s was a finalist in the American Book Fest 2019 Best Book Awards and 2020 International Best Book Awards contests.
