Beschreibung
Born in Perth, Western Australia, during World War 2 to an English-born mother and a fourth-generation Sydney-based Engineer father. Kevin was introduced to flying at an incredibly early age, with his father teaching flying to recruits during
the war period. They resided in a close city above
average suburb where he was educated and
enjoyed a wide range of sporting activities, archery,
cricket, and baseball in which he represented the
State. His friends introduced him to car racing,
horse sports, and surf lifesaving so that by the age
he reached eighteen. He had acquired a very wide
education. This led him to a real estate occupation
where he experienced domestic building, valuation, and a wide field of property
sales, development, and consultancy. Kevin became the City Valuer of Perth,
then moved on to an agency partnership and remarkably high-value property,
industrial, city leasing, and sporting complexes, continuing to mines, towns, and
interstate commercial development. He was a court witness on many occasions
acting for Local, State, and Federal government agencies, and later towards
retirement, concluded with the assessment of major complexes for insurance
purposes. Along the way, Kevin was appointed President of the local progress
association, Captain initially, then President of a major golf club, President of
the Institute of Valuers WA division, the Australian Institute for several years,
Captain of a prestigious yacht club. He was appointed to several business boards
such as the land valuation tribunal, town planning, and compensation appeal
boards. On retirement, the computer talked. He began writing a fantasy trilogy,
something that had been buzzing around in his head, gradually expanding and
growing with newly discovered events since the time he was an adolescent.
That completed, he found it necessary to keep writing, and now on his seventh
book (the last three being crime thrillers), agrees he will keep writing till all his
days are done. He says the enjoyment he gains from writing is immense and just
hopes the readers on turning the final page, smile and say, ah! Yes! That was a
worthwhile experience.
