Larry O. Waters was born in the very pleasant sounding town of Gulf Hammock, Florida. After a two-year period of service in the Army, and graduating from Harding College (in Searcy, Arkansas) with a B.S. degree in Business Administration, Larry settled in the Dallas, Texas area. There he pursued a career as a salesman and a partner in a small printing company.

Joining the John Birch Society in 1961, Larry soon became very actively involved as a chairman for various local JBS committees. Deciding to formalize his passion for Birching into full-time employment, he joined the staff in 1967 as a coordinator.

Larry has since worked as a Major Coordinator, a Regional Director, and Director of Field Activities. At present, Larry serves as Vice President.

With children long grown and gone, Larry and his wife Yvonne still call Texas home.
