BiographyHistory

Although Irish-born and educated in the U.K., Europe and U.S.A., Dunn regarded himself as an Australian by choice. He served in World War II, practised briefly as a psychotherapist and for many years as a freelance journalist. In 1955 Dunn coverted to Buddhism. In addition to many books of prose, he published collections of verse, including a series of translations from the Chinese, including The City of Wide Streets by the Friendly River (1952) and Leaves of Jade (1954). Dunn also wrote books on warfare including War in the Sky (1940). Dunn founded and operated two small presses which published mainly his own work.
