Simon Black
Biography
'If you can remember the sixties you weren't really there.'
Well Simon Black was there and he can remember bits of it. Some of those memories have found their way into his novels 'Goodbye Summer, Goodbye' and 'A song about cars and girls'.
Simon Black was born and raised in the (then) sleepy coastal backwater of Perth, Western Australia. He left there in the mid-sixties to seek his fortune and is still looking for it.
The accompanying photo dates from some years ago, a circumstance Mr Black justifies on the grounds that they don't make cameras like they used to, which is certainly true.
He currently teaches Physics and Maths in Melbourne Australia and writes novels.
