Autorenporträt
John Holliday grew up in England, where he served in the Royal Air Force and later with IBM. After moving to Canada and initially continuing to work with IBM, John started the first of many businesses, mostly in the IT industry. A subsequent business opportunity resulted in a move to Australia where he continued his entrepreneurial activities. John's interest in writing arose when he decided to write a memoir of his business life, published under the title Toughing it Out: Adventures of a Global Entrepreneur. ISBN 9781475210743. This led to the publication of the biography of an ancestor and then to his current book. John lives with his wife Colleen on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia, with three children and four grandchildren close by.
