Biographical Note

Gary Crew was born and educated in Brisbane, Queensland, leaving school at sixteen to work as a draftsman until 1973. He subsequently trained as a teacher and taught English and history at several Brisbane high schools. In 1979 he completed a Master of Arts in post-colonial literature at the University of Queensland. Crew was appointed Head of English at Albany Creek High School in 1982. Crew's experience in Brisbane schools made him aware that traditional text selections were not relevant to many of his students. This made the task of encouraging close reading very difficult. He began writing novels for adolescents in the 1980s in an attempt to provide material relevant to a wider range of high school students. In 1989 he began writing full-time and has since written many award-winning books, including Strange Objects (1990) and Angel's Gate (1993) for which he won the Children's Book Council Book of the Year Award. The latter also attracted international attention, winning the American Children's Book of Distinction Prize. Crew's experiments with plot and characterisation are widely admired. His use of the macabre and other forms popular with teenagers has attracted many young readers to his themes of the search for self-knowledge, cultural identity and alienation. Crew continues to write prolifically and supplements his wrting income by lecturing in creative writing at the University of the Sunshine Coast and the Queensland University of Technology.
