Autorenporträt

Tony Perry was born in Sydney, grew up in Wagga and ended up in Melbourne. He played music (indifferently) during the sixties and like most of his contemporaries imagined a life of sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll. In the seventies he studied printmaking at the Victorian College of Arts, worked as a photographer, held several exhibitions, and wrote reviews for the Age. From 1980 to 2003 he taught photography and art history, but gave up in disgust when the powers decided a 'training' was more important then an education. In 2006 he wrote this book.
