Anthony is one of Australia’s most experienced nature and travel writers. For nearly three decades, he has been traveling to the earth’s wild places in search of stories, to Africa, the Amazon, the Arctic, and to Outback Australia.
In addition to his two works of narrative non-fiction, his work has appeared in the New York Times, Smithsonian Magazine, Geographical, Virginia Quarterly Review (VQR), National Geographic Traveler, The Age, Sydney Morning Herald, The Monthly, BBC Wildlife, Lonely Planet Traveller, Africa Geographic, The Independent, Travel Africa, and elsewhere.
Through his writing, Anthony’s readers have drawn near to Africa’s most endangered elephant herd, traveled to remote villages behind al-Qaeda lines, and ventured deep into remote corners of Africa and the Amazon to discover disappearing worlds.
His writing philosophy is simple: He believes in the power of the written word, the enduring power of stories, and the importance of writing beautifully about important things.
He has also written or co-written more than 200 guides for Lonely Planet, including Botswana & Namibia, South Africa, Southern Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, East Africa, Madagascar, West Africa, Brazil, Spain, Madrid, Norway, Iceland, Australia, and Western USA.
He lived in Madrid for ten years and now divides his time between Madrid and Melbourne, Australia.
