I was born in England and worked for the BBC for 9 years in radio and film sound. Since 1973 I have lived in New Zealand and worked as a freelance sound recordist. In 2015 I had the opportunity to make a documentary, South 2015, for The British Antarctic Monument Trust. My cousin Jeremy Bailey, a pioneer of ice depth radar, was one of those lost, in an accident in Antarctica in 1965.
My IMBD biography is Graham Morris (III)
