Nigel Gray (author)
Nigel Gray (born 1941) is an Irish-born West Australian author of books for both children and adults.
==Early life and career==
Gray was born in Aughafatten, County Antrim, Ireland in 1941, but a year later was taken to England and fostered out. After a troubled childhood and adolescence he spent ten years working in a series of unskilled jobs, including two years in continental Europe travelling from the Mediterranean to the Arctic Circle.〔http://www.nigelgray-author.com/about-nigel-gray.html〕 He later travelled more widely, and was a member of a group called Non-Violent Action in Vietnam that went to South East Asia to oppose the American War there in 1967/68.〔Talented writer once bared all for his art, Michele Phillips, The West Australian, 22 April 1989.〕〔Pen mightier than the sword for justice crusader, Andrea McCullah, The Irish Echo, August 2014.〕〔British author writes 'from the inside', The Geraldton Guardian, 16 May 1989.〕 After being released from prison in Thailand he was deported to the UK, and later in that 'Year of Revolutions' he was arrested in France, England, and Germany where he again was locked up briefly and deported. In the 1970s he worked as a photographer, and was exhibited in London and had a one-person exhibition in Lancaster. As an actor he performed the part of Joe Malik in Ken Campbell's epic adaptation of ''Illuminatus'' in Liverpool and Amsterdam. The play transferred to the National Theatre, London, where Gray dropped out for personal reasons and his role was taken over by Bill Nighy. He migrated to Australia in 1988.
