Author/ Attorney

Tate Barkley's forthcoming memoir, Sunday Dinners, Moonshine and Men, to be published in 2023, recounts Tate’s troubled relationship with his father and his journey to overcome shame and the scarcity mindset that blocked his ability to find peace in his life. Tate offers readers a deeply personal account of his dysfunctional childhood, from the backwoods of North Carolina, to his family’s struggles with poverty in Central Florida, and their ultimate move to the boomtown of 1970s Houston, Texas. He details his attempts to repress his sexuality and control his escalating drinking as he became a successful attorney, only to hit rock bottom and lose it all. Tate’s story will resonate with readers as they follow his quest to accept himself and find peace. Tate is a practicing attorney, speaker, author, and educator, living in Houston, Texas with his husband of six years, Anson, and their dog, Emerson.
