Robert J. Barham
Robert Jocelyn Barham (born January 25, 1949) is an American large-scale farmer from Morehouse Parish who serves under Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal as the secretary of the state's Department of Wildlife and Fisheries. He is also a Republican former member of the Louisiana State Senate who represented District 33 (Claiborne, Morehouse, Union, and West Carroll parishes), all of which border Arkansas in the northeasternmost section of his state.
In an interview published on January 1, 2008, Barham said that his major LDWF issues are coastal restoration and controlling invasive aquatic vegetation in lakes and waterways: "We'll be on the front lines of coastal restoration. It's a huge project. It's going to have an impact on fisheries, oyster leases, the environment — but we have no choice. We have to do it."〔
==Background==
Barham was born in Monroe to Erle McKoin "Ninety" Barham (1916–1976) and Rosalie Smith Barham (1913–1999). He grew up on the family plantation in Oak Ridge in Morehouse Parish along with older brother, Erle Edwards Barham, who held this same Senate seat as a Republican from 1976 to 1980. Edwards Barham was the first Republican elected to the Louisiana Senate since Reconstruction. Edwards and Robert Barham were cousins of the late Democratic State Senator Charles C. Barham, who represented an adjoining district based about Ruston from 1964 to 1972 and again from 1976 to 1988.〔"Senate to consider honor for Barham", ''Baton Rouge Morning Advocate'', May 5, 2010〕
Barham graduated from Oak Ridge High School. He received a bachelor's degree from Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge. In 1970, he entered the United States Army for a two-year stint as a medic in South Vietnam. In 1999, he became a colonel in the Louisiana National Guard. Barham also obtained a master's degree from the University of Louisiana at Monroe (then Northeast Louisiana State University). In 1994, he completed the "Agricultural Leadership Program" at LSU. He began full-time farming, Robert Barham Farms, Inc., in Oak Ridge in 1972. Barham and his wife, the former Melba Pipes (born 1954), have three children, Robert Erle, Rebecca, and Henry.
