Norm Sanders
Norman Karl Sanders (born 15 October 1932) is an Australian former politician, representing the Australian Democrats in the Tasmanian House of Assembly from 1980 to 1982 and the Australian Senate from 1985 to 1990.
==Early life==
Born in Cleveland, Sanders served in the United States Air Force from 1950 to 1952. He worked as an Alaskan bush pilot and later, an aerospace engineer. He completed a Bachelor of Science degree at the University of Alaska, and Master of Arts at the University of California, Los Angeles. Having obtained a Fulbright Scholarship to study in Australia, he was awarded his doctorate at the University of Tasmania in 1968.
Upon returning to the United States, Sanders took up the role of assistant professor of geography at the University of California, Santa Barbara. He was very active in the battle to stop offshore oil drilling, was on the board of directors of GET OIL OUT! (GOO!) and a founding director of Western Citizens for Environmental Defense, which conducted environmental legal actions. He was a member of the International Council of Environmental Law, Bonn, Germany. He was also deeply involved in the campaign to pass Proposition 20, the California Coastal Initiative. Sanders sailed across the Pacific to Tasmania in 1974. On the voyage, he and his crew became witnesses in the Palmyra murders described by Vincent Bugliosi in his book ''And the Sea Will Tell.''
While still in Hobart, Sanders worked as a TV journalist on the ABC current-affairs program ''This Day Tonight''. This was the prelude to his becoming heavily involved in Australia's nascent environmental movement, and to his directorship of The Wilderness Society. He published two books on environmental issues.〔Norman, J. (2004) ''Bob Brown: Gentle Revolutionary'', Allen & Unwin, Sydney. ISBN 1-74114-466-3.〕
