Timothy Colin "Tim" Smith (born 15 October 1983) is an Australian politician. He has been a Liberal Party of Australia member of the Victorian Legislative Assembly since November 2014, representing the Legislative Assembly seat of Kew. ==Early life and education== Tim Smith was born in Melbourne in 1983. Smith's family has a background in small business—his great-grandfather founded Ferguson's Cakes in 1901, which became Ferguson Plarre under his grandfather in 1980. He grew up in Camberwell, Victoria and attended Scotch College, Melbourne and Rugby School in England. Smith was accepted into the University of Melbourne and Ormond College where he undertook a Bachelor of Arts in history and politics. During his time as an undergraduate he was a dedicated athlete, gaining selection to the Australian rowing team. Tim's elite rowing career lasted five years. He represented Australia at three World Championships, two World Cups, and the Under 23 World Championships, winning a Bronze Medal at the 2004 World Championships at Lake of Banyoles, Spain in the Men's Lightweight Eight. In 2005 he was selected in the Olympic class Lightweight Four, where he placed fourth at the World Championships. Because of this performance, he earned a full scholarship to the Australian Institute of Sport. In the lead up to the 2006 World Championships in England he sustained a significant back injury which prevented him from seeking selection for the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Smith then returned to the University of Melbourne where he undertook a Masters of International Politics. As part of this degree he was accepted into the Hansard Research Scholars Programme at the London School of Economics. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tim Smith (Australian politician)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
