PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Craig Horne worked as the Communications Manager for Aboriginal Affairs Victoria for ten years and was a member of the Victorian Archaeological Survey in the 1970s. In that time, he was confronted with the devastating impact of Australia's racism on First Nations peoples and became determined to help those wanting to hold a mirror up to these destructive ideologies. He subsequently worked as a public servant and speechwriter. He has also pursued a successful parallel career as a musician and singer on the Melbourne scene over the last fifty years. Craig is the author of two novels- Bureaucracy Blues and Alpha Jerk. He also co-authored a running guide entitled Runs Around Melbourne, and has published a trilogy of music biographies with Melbourne Books, including Daddy Who?; Roots- How Melbourne became the music capital of the world; and more recently I'll Be Gone, Mike Rudd, Spectrum and how one song captured a generation.
