Barry currently serves as president and chairman of Atlantic Capes Fisheries, a Cape May and New Bedford, MA-based vertically integrated harvest to table seafood company. He was a trial lawyer for 40 years and remains “of counsel” to the Petro Cohen Law Firm he co-founded in 1998. Barry has served as president or committee chair on various local, state and national boards including, Congregation Beth Judah, the Jewish Federation of Atlantic and Cape May counties, the New Jersey Association for Justice and the National Community Relations Advisory Council. Locally, with his wife Ronnie and Cape May MAC Trustee Norris Clark, co-founded Cape May Forum. Barry and Ronnie actively support Cape May Stage, the Harriett Tubman Museum, and Cape May MAC’s Annual Music Festival. Barry’s late mother began her support of Cape May MAC shortly after its founding and he hopes to build on her, and this institution’s, well-deserved legacies.
