Steve Wrixon Russell

The Author

Steve Russell grew up in Sydney, Australia and has worked in the stockbroking, airline, hospitality, and transport industries.
In his adventurous youth, he travelled and lived in Africa for a year, backpacking from Cape Town to Nairobi and back in the early seventies.

Being a second cousin to the swashbuckling 1940’s film star, Errol Flynn, he has inherited some, but not all his wicked ways.

He spent a year in Europe, working in London and travelling through Europe in a campervan. Travelling through East Germany at the height of the cold war to vibrant West Berlin in 1974 and transiting the famous checkpoint, Charlie.

He served as Mayor of Hornsby Shire for five years, experiencing the highs and lows of politics, the wins, and the losses. Has three adult children and six grandsons, and lives with his wife Christine on the Hawkesbury River NSW, Australia, on the outskirts of Sydney.
His first book, ‘Don’t Cry For Me, Aunt Tina’ whilst fiction, is based on some of the events and characters he has encountered and met along that journey.
