Anthony Hill

Anthony Hill is a Canberra-based writer, former journalist and speechwriter for the Governor-General. In addition to this, Anthony Hill and his family ran an antique shop for five years in a small country town in New South Wales. The experience formed the basis of his first two books, The Bunburyists and Antique Furniture in Australia. His first children’s book, Birdsong, was published in 1988, followed in 1994 by his award-winning novella The Burnt Stick, illustrated by Mark Sofilas. The two combined again to produce Spindrift in 1996 and Forbidden in 2002.
