Notes:
  • Michael Bauer lives with his family in the beautiful Brisbane suburb of Ashgrove - the setting for The Running Man. It is the suburb in which he grew up, where he went to school, where he spent several years teaching, where he met his wife and where, only a few streets away from his present house, in what used to be a private hospital, he was born. Michael has taught English and economics at a number of secondary schools in the Brisbane-Ipswich area. Recently he has balanced part-time teaching with his love of writing. In 2003 he won the inaugural Writesmall short story competition at the Brisbane Writers Festival. In 2004 his first novel for young adults The Running Man was published by Omnibus / Scholastic. It won the Children’s Book Council of Australia Book of the Year: Older Readers Award for 2005. His second novel, Don’t Call Me Ishmael which was published in 2006, has been shortlisted for the 2007 Children’s Book Awards. It is a comedy set in an all boys’ school. http://alea.edu.au/html/reading-day/100/the-running-man
