About B. Bernard Ferguson

Desert Rocks Publishing

B. Bernard Ferguson is a retired federal agent. He is a Southern California native and currently lives with his wife Diane in Las Vegas, Nevada. He self-published his first book, “Where’s the EQ?: Race and Policing Up-Close,” in 2016, following a successful twenty-one-year career in federal law enforcement.

After earning his Ph.D., he used both his law enforcement experience and doctoral research to explore some of the most controversial police shootings of our time. Drawing from his academic studies where his research centered on emotional intelligence within policing, Bernard’s writing often reflects his keen interest in human thought processes.
