Samantha Bayarr founded Livingston Hall Publishers in 2002. Named after her great, great grandfather, Edward Livingston Hall, who owned a publishing house in the late 1800's, until his passing; Samantha resurrected this legacy as a way of honoring him for passing onto her his love for the written word.

Samantha is best known for her Jacob's Daughter Amish series which became an Amazon and Barnes & Noble Best-Seller, netting more than one million copies sold. Her first book series, Little Wild Flower, an Amish Romance, was borne from her up-close encounters with the Amish in the community she lived near and befriended in Indiana until 1995.

She lives in an historic home in a small town in Florida with her husband, John Foster, who writes children's books. Samantha illustrates her husband's books.

Samantha is a member of Amish Living, Romance Writers of America, and American Christian Fiction Writers (ACFW).
