Michael Chamberlain
Born in Christchurch, New Zealand, towards the end of the Second World War in 1944, Michael Leigh Chamberlain was the eldest son of Ivan and Greta Chamberlain. He was raised on a farm south of Christchurch on the banks of the Selwyn River, which weaves its way from the Southern Alps down to the Pacific Ocean. It was here that he developed a passion for the outdoors - spending his spare time fishing, hunting and working on the family farm. Michael ran as a Liberal party candidate for New South Wales State Parliament in 2003, achieving a 5.2 percent swing against the incumbent Lake Macquarie member, Geoff Hunter. In September 2003 he accepted a contract with the NSW Department of Education and Training teaching English at an Aboriginal high school in the north west of New South Wales and later taught in Gosford, NSW from 2006 until 2008. Michael maintains an active interest in politics, law, media ethics, writing and research. In 2008 he retired from full time teaching and is now engaging as a professional writer. At present he is writing his fourth and firth books, one of which is a novel.
