How to convert Strings and a Bitmap to a byte array?

Question

I'm using a GoogleApiClient MessageApi method which accepts an arbitrary payload specified as a byte array.

For my payload I have some strings and a Bitmap that I want to transfer all together in one go.

What options are there available for packaging the strings and bitmaps and converting to a byte array?

A Bitmap can be converted to bytes through copyPixelsToBuffer. A string has getBytes.
