About Justin Kerr-Smiley

Justin Kerr-Smiley was born in 1965 and brought up in Scotland. He was educated at Ampleforth and Newcastle University. Awarded a BBC bursary for post graduate studies in journalism, he worked as a radio reporter in Sydney and London. He then spent 15 years with Associated Press Television News (APTN) and reported from Northern Ireland, the Balkans and South America. His first novel 'Under The Sun' is published by Arcadia.

'Goodbye To The President' was published by Merman Books in December 2014. He has also had poetry and short fiction published in the London Magazine.
