Autorenporträt
Jenny Kroonstuiver is the daughter of Ruth and Eric Swann, and a granddaughter of Fred Lee and Ivy Pointon. Born in the 1950s, she spent her childhood living on pastoral stations firstly in western Queensland and then on the Nullarbor Plain in Western Australia. Jenny trained as a teacher and spent several years teaching in country areas of the Northern Territory and Queensland, before returning to Kalgoorlie in the 1980s. After a short-lived marriage, she raised her four children alone, continuing to work in the broader education sector. From 2004, she took up a role managing the national training system for the Australian meat industry, a role she held until her retirement in 2020. Since then, she has been researching family history and this is her third book.
