Author's Bio
GERMAINE GREER Germaine Greer was born in 1939 in Melbourne, Australia. After a convent education, she graduated from Melbourne University in 1958, followed by an MA from Sydney University in 1963. She then went to Cambridge University in England on a Commonwealth Scholarship and received her PhD in 1968. In London, she became an active contributor to Oz magazine, and was guest editor in July 1970. While lecturing in English at Warwick University, she wrote and published the classic book, The Female Eunuch (1970), which became an essential text for the feminist movement. In 1999, she published its sequel The Whole Woman saying in the introduction: "The time has come to get angry again". She has also written for many newspapers and periodicals and was a regular guest reviewer on BBC TV's The Late Review. Recently, she caused controversy when she walked out of the TV Reality show Big Brother. Germaine Greer was married briefly to Paul Du Feu.
