Kev Carmody Australia
Biography
Kev Carmody grew up on the Western Darling Downs area of Southern Queensland. His early childhood was simple but happy, mixing mostly with stockmen, drovers, fencers, ring-barkers and timber-getters. His family, although poor lived largely off the land growing vegetables near the small three roomed ant-bed floored hut and hunting and catching everything from kangaroos to fish. In 1956, when he was ten, Carmody was sent to a “Christian school” which he has described as “little more than an orphanage”.
