I would like to hire someone, or a company to write a short bio for my professional website. The end goal is attract potential clients. Are there individuals who specialize in this? Where do I seek them out?

How about places like rentacoder.com ? I haven't used it for writing work but I did use it to find some programming work.

I'll recommend Michelle Goodman, only because I took two of her books out of the library, instead of actually buying them, but they were good enough that she ought to be compensated (and I'm not really a book buyer, otherwise I'd probably just buy them).

You're essentially looking for a copywriter - and one who writes web copy, specifically.
