| Info | Farris is a former aide to Governor Mike Sullivan, and a journalist who has spoken out against the inequitable policies of the United States in the Middle East.
As a political columnist, he wrote several columns questioning the level of aid given to Israel, particularly the unique policy that allows American citizens to deduct donations to Israeli charities from their income tax. That column generated from former Illinois Rep. Paul Findley an appreciative note.
Farris, has also contributed articles to the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, including a 1989 profile of former Wyoming Rep. Richard Cheney and his views of the Middle East when Cheney was named Secretary of Defense by President George Bush. Farris has also reviewed books on the Middle East for such publications as The Bloomsbury Review .
Farris's knowledge of Middle East affairs, expressed during a foreign policy seminar at the University of Wyoming, so impressed the guest seminar leader, former Undersecretary of State David Newsom, that Farris was invited to participate in the 1989 Georgetown University International Leadership Seminar while Newsom was a professor there at the Georgetown School of Foreign Service.
