Tony Keulemans spent his childhood in the UK and was a war-time evacuee. At age 19, he was commissioned in the Royal Air Force and during the next seven years served in post-war Germany and Holland. Following an RAF mission to Woomera in 1952 and a brief visit to Sydney, he decided - primarily for economic and climatic reasons - to start a new life in Australia. He became a radio and television producer with the ABC and later, on acquiring a doctorate from the University of Colorado, joined the academic world. He gets by in several languages and has participated in many communication projects, primarily in Europe. Tony spent the first half of the 1990s in Singapore at Ngee Ann Polytechnic where he was invited to establish Singapore's first mass communication course and later its first film, video and audio school. In 1996 he began work in China, initially as an editor and language consultant with China Central Television and subsequently as a teacher at universities in Beijing, Haikou, Nanning and Chongqing. In 2009, he retired from full-time work in China and now lives with his family in Sydney.
