Autor

Ian Campbell has had a lifelong interest in military history. Growing up behind the Australian War Memorial in Canberra, he spent many hours wandering the halls thoroughly absorbed in the displays. His wise mother fostered his love of reading and history by introducing him very early to the works of Paul Brickhill. Ian has qualifications in History and Politics from the Australian National University. After a varied career in the government, private and not-for-profit sectors, he retired to research and write. His first book, Thinks He's a Bird, about Australian Pathfinder and Lancaster pilot, Flight Lieutenant Keith Watson, was released in 2022. Ian is currently curator of the Bennett/Vial Archive at the Queensland Air Museum. This archive comprises three collections, of which AVM Don Bennett's private collection is one. Ian and his wife, Kathy, have lived in many places in Australia, as well as New Zealand and Canada. They now live in Brisbane. When circumstances permit, they love to travel, but he has vowed never to move house again.
