Part TWO BILLIARDS

Part PLAYERS AND THEIR WORLD

　　Robert Byrne is the author of seven novels, five collections

of humorous quotations, seven books on billiards, two anthologies,

and an expose of frauds in the literary world. One of his novels,

Thrill, was made into NBC’s Monday Night Movie, which aired for the

first time on May 20, 1996. Four of his novels were selections of

Reader’s Digest Condensed Books and published in many languages.

His style is widely praised for its clarity and wit. Byrne’s

Standard Book of Pool and Billiards, published in 1978 and expanded

in 1998, has sold over 400,000 copies. In the world of pool and

billiards, his books, hundreds of instructional magazine articles,

six videotapes (shot on sound stages in Burbank and Hollywood,

California), have established him as the preeminent teacher and

commentator. As a player, he has won tournaments in almost every

form of the game. He finished third in the National Professional

Three-Cushion Championship in 1977 held in North Hollywood. In

1999, he won both the National Amateur and the National Senior

billiard tournaments. His contributions to billiards and pool were

recognized when he was awarded the greatest honor in the sport:

induction into the Billiard Congress of America’s Hall of Fame. The

honor, for Meritorious Service, was bestowed on July 21, 2001, at

the Las Vegas Hilton at a banquet closing the annual world billiard

trade show. He was inducted with many-times world billiard champion

Raymond Ceulemans of Belgium. Byrne was born and raised in Dubuque,

Iowa, spent forty years in the San Francisco Bay Area, and returned

to Dubuque in 1996, where he now lives with his wife Cindy, a

painter and graphic artist. After graduating with a civil

engineering degree from the University of Colorado in 1954, he

edited a trade journal in the heavy construction industry. He

became a full-time writer in 1977.
