James Knight - Biographer, television producer, journalist, features writer, copy writer, speech-writer, public speaker, traveller. 20 years in the media industry.
James, biographer, television producer and writer, returned to Australia in March 2008 after spending a year travelling through South America and East Africa with his wife, Clare. They worked as volunteers in Ecuador and Ethiopia, helping poor families, particularly children. The experience re-inforced James's view that 'we are all in this together.' Hence his need to tell stories in various ways.
James tells Book Creators Circle: 'We all have stories to tell. Whether it be about one moment in our lives, or our entire lives, we need to share our experiences and learn from them.'
James released his fifth book, A Theory of Moments, in August 09. His books to date are:
Lee2 (Best seller about cricketers, Shane and Brett Lee) Mark Waugh, the Official Biography (Best-seller) The Dragon's Journey (The incredible life story of a Vietnamese refugee):foreword written by Rupert Murdoch and Frank Lowy) Just Doing My Job (Collection of portraits of police, fire fighters, and ambulance officers)A Theory of Moments (See below)James Knight is a renowned public speaker whose vast array of experiences with people touch the audience in every possible way.
When not working, he is often seen pounding the pavements; he is an avid long distance runner who equates writing a book to running a marathon. |
