Assemblyman Bill Berryhill represents the people of the 26th Assembly District, which includes the cities of Stockton, Turlock, Manteca, Ceres, Modesto, Patterson, Ripon, and Escalon.

A fourth generation Californian and son of the late Clare Berryhill, Bill's roots in agriculture and public service are deep. For more than thirty years he has farmed wine grapes in Stanislaus and San Joaquin counties and operated successful custom grape harvesting businesses. Bill founded the cornerstone of his agricultural operations - BB Vineyards - in 1978. He has also served on the boards of both Allied Grape Growers and the Stanislaus County Farm Bureau.

In honor of his success in business and contributions to the Central Valley economy, the Ceres Chamber of Commerce recognized Bill as Agri Business Man of the Year in 2001.

Bill's entry into public service came in 1996, when he was elected to the Ceres Unified School District Board of Trustees. During his eleven years on the Board, Bill's efforts were instrumental in transforming Ceres into one of California's top-performing school districts by emphasizing parental involvement, quality teachers, and strategic planning.

In 2008, Bill was elected to the State Assembly, where he serves as vice chair of the Labor and Employment Committee and as a member of the Budget, Elections & Redistricting, and Jobs, Economic Development, & the Economy (JEDE) Committees.

In addition to his business and public service interests, Bill is an avid hunter, outdoorsman, and wildlife artist. He is a partner in a 700 acre wetland restoration project in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, and he is a member of Ducks Unlimited, the National Rifle Association, the Greater Stockton Chamber of Commerce, and the Stanislaus and San Joaquin County Farm Bureaus.

Bill and his wife, Triana, have been married since 1990. They live in Ceres with their three children: William, Alexandra, and Gabriella.
