He studied at Harvard, served in the U.S. Navy during World War II, and finished his A.B. at the University of California at Berkeley.
Bayliss earned a livelihood in positions involving systems and executive management, beginning in 1950 at a Berkeley bookstore. In the 1960s, as controller of Gorton's of Gloucester, he was a pioneer in developing integrated computer applications. Bayliss left Gorton's in 1972, and with the financial assistance of a literary grant he devoted the following five years to full-time writing. Later he worked for the City of Gloucester as an executive aide to the mayor and as city treasurer, resuming full-time writing in 1985.
Bayliss was putting the finishing touches on his final novel when he died in Gloucester at the age of 82.ver menos
