Kerry Taylor
Originally from Sydney, Kerry’s life so far has been as unpredictable as it has varied - not unlike Bill Smith’s. After a career teaching in suburban schools, a holiday to Central Australia changed the direction of her life. Kerry became a nurse, researcher and academic focused on Indigenous health and is published widely in the field. Another change of direction now sees Kerry enjoying new passions of rowing on the Murray River and walking and photographing the coastlines of the Fleurieu Peninsula, South Australia. Mr Smith to You is her first novel.
