Larry Watts resides in League City, Texas with his wife Carolyn. A former Houston police officer, he also spent more than 20 years as a labor negotiator, most recently as the Director of Labor Relations for the City of Austin, Texas. During his forty plus years working in and with the public safety community he has been involved in assisting hundreds of Texas peace officers who were unfortunately involved in incidents that required the use of force, including the taking of another life.
Watts captures the many conflicts that arise from such incidents in his new novel Cheating Justice and previous work Right, Wrong, and Rationalizing Truth. In his short story Beautiful Revenge, he shows his ability to entertain the reader with stories of a vastly different nature.
Watts has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Labor Studies from Antioch University and completed the Harvard Trade Union Program at Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Business while working in the police labor movement.
The author of numerous trade magazine articles during his career, he continues to utilize his unique experience in the law enforcement community and his life experiences to entertain readers with both novels and short stories.
