Show detail Hide detail

Roberts, Kevin, 1940- : Kevin Roberts was born in Adelaide, Australia in 1940. He completed a B.A. in English, History and Education from Adelaide University in 1961. After moving to Canada in 1965, he taught school briefly in British Columbia and then studied at Simon Fraser University where he received his M.A. in 1968. Roberts began doctoral studies on "the indigenous figure in Canadian and Australian literature" at the University of London, then returned to Canada and began teaching creative writing at Malaspina College in Nanaimo, British Columbia. Poet, playwright and novelist, Roberts has published several books of poetry, including "Cariboo Fishing Notes" (1973), "S'Ney'mos" (1980), "Stonefish" (1982) and "Nanoose Bay Suite" (1984), several books of short stories, and a novel "Tears in a Glass Eye" (1989). His "Red Centre Journal" (1992) culminated in an exhibit of poetry, prose and photographs at the Madrona Centre of poetry in 1989. Among his dramatic works produced for television, radio, film and stage, "Black Apples" (a series of voice poems on the history of Nanaimo) was produced as a play in 1990. Roberts's literary activities include publishing "True North/Down Under", a journal of Australian and Canadian literature, 1983-1986.
