Bay Book's HistoryEstablished in 1990
Bay Books is the vision of and testimonial to its founder, Shirley Muller. Through her energy and imagination, it grew into the success it is today. Remarkably, Shirley was able to expand the bookstore's retail space and inventory when many other bookstores were folding under the weight of online book selling. She passed away on 2002 after battling cancer. Her daughter in law, Angelica Muller, and her step-sister, Shirley Hanson, continue her role as owners. |
