==Background==
A native of Shawnee, [[Oklahoma]], Bryant was reared in Hope. A [[journalist]], he was from 1939 to 1951 the editor and publisher of the daily ''Hope Journal'' (now ''The Hope Star''). He served as the publisher of ''The Arkansas Almanac.'' He was the field secretary for the Arkansas Sheriffs Association, in which capacity he edited the official magazine of that organization. When he ran for office, he therefore had a fervent base of support with sheriffs. He was a member of the Arkansas Press Association and was the state printing clerk while also an employee of the state auditor.
