Meet William Finnegan

His memoir, Barbarian Days: A Surfing Life, won numerous awards including the 2016 Pulitzer Prize in Biography. Pulitzer.org describes the book as “A finely crafted memoir of a youthful obsession that has propelled the author through a distinguished writing career.”
His publisher, Penguin Books, says, “Barbarian Days is an old-school adventure story, and intellectual autobiography, a social history, a literary road move, and an extraordinary exploration of the gradual mastering of an exacting little-understood art.”
