Tony Moore

June 2005

Tony Moore will be releasing a book on the the Barry McKenzie films of the 1970s. Keep your ears and eyes open. We will be doing some feature spots on the site about the book when it is released in November. I feel deeply honoured to have some one write about the adventures of Barry McKenzie. I am sure this will be a great read.

He was as a program maker at ABC Television from 1988 to 1997, specialising in documentaries and current affairs.
