1 y separately published work icon My Generation Albie Thoms , The Rocks : Media 21 Publishing , 2012 Z1932146 2012 single work autobiography 'This is the quintessential reference to the decade in which Australia shed the cultural cringe. The Sydney Push. The Iconic Yellow House. UBU Films. Oz Magazine. All were the launching pad for a new generation to challenge the conservative, stultified monoculture. Set in the context of the sexual revolution, Women's and Gay Liberation, Aboriginal Rights to Struggles, the anti-Vietnam war movement, hippies, drugs, psychedelic parties and Happenings, this book is Albie Thoms' definitive account of a major turning point in the cultural life of Australia.'

'Four characters, all misfits of a sort, cross paths over one weekend on the northern beaches of Sydney. Leilani (Amanda Berry) is a runaway 16-year-old; Larry (John Flaus) is a Bondi private eye who’s looking for her; Joe (Ken Brown) needs to score some LSD to get him out of trouble. Paul (Bryan Brown) is unemployed and broke, until he steals a gun.'

Set in the fictional Waratah National Park (NSW), the Skippy series focuses largely on the adventures of a young boy, Sonny Hammond, and his intelligent pet kangaroo, Skippy. Sonny is the youngest child of Head Ranger Matt Hammond. Matt was left a widower in his early forties when his wife Mary died not long after Sonny was born. Other principal characters are Sonny's older brother Mark, Flight Ranger Jerry King (the park's helicopter pilot), and Ranger Clancy Merrick, the teenage daughter of another park ranger.
