Tony Moore (Author)
Tony MooreBorn in Northampton England to his mother Rosina who passed away when Tony was 4-years old, he spent his early childhood in Lowestoft Suffolk with an aunt who became his guardian angel. After a childhood of being moved from place to place in foster homes orphanages and children's homes, Tony then then lost both adopted parents before he was 12-years old. He was forced into boarding school in Cheltenham, with hilarious results and on leaving school he moved back to Ealing in West London to begin a 5-year engineering apprenticeship and achieved an engineering degree. Earning very little and certainly not enough to support himself, he learned to sing and played in several bands to make ends meet before moving to Toulouse in France. He met many, now famous, people along the way, including royalty and their stories are meshed with Tony's. He became an entrepreneur and owned several successful businesses in UK and USA and was the US Correspondent to a UK radio station, with his many interviews now available on his YouTube page and these stories are described in his book.Tony has four children, two daughters Amanda and Georgia living in London with his six grandchildren, he also has two sons Nicholas and James living in Greenwood Indiana where he now lives with his wife Sue of 30 years.Tony's faith is in a divine presence that can and will help any and all of us and all we have to do is to ask. Tony also believes that each of us are given divine gifts that we can choose to use or choose not to and that freedom of choice is ours alone to make. If the tools, or skills we are given are used, our lives can be incredibly altered and we find ourselves doing things we love and things we are good at. Through doing this we can positively affect all those around us. In Tony's book 'One Of A Kind Making Things Happen' you will see how he used his gifts to achieve incredible international success with his life so far.Tony now has his own publishing company, Briton Publishing LLC, partnered with Rob Lowe and Brinka Raugh, who are also partners of Casting New Lives, an entertainment management company.Read more about this authorRead less about this author

Fringe to Famous examines exchange between small scenes of cultural production and mainstream institutions and markets. Drawing on Australian examples in music, streetwear, comedy, screen and digital games, it argues that there has been much greater crossover between the two than is generally recognized.

The book resists a tendency to represent fringe and mainstream as abstract opposites, bringing a focus instead to concrete historical formations. It offers an alternative both to romantic celebrations of a ‘pure’ fringe – discredited now by half a century of critical responses to the counterculture – and to an increasingly hardened anti-romantic reaction.

Drawing on extensive original interviews, Fringe to Famous offers an overview of transformations in Australian culture since the 1980s, concluding with suggestions for cultural policy ‘after the creative industries’. It proposes an idea of ‘generative hybridity’ between fringe and mainstream that allows us to imagine new possibilities for arts and culture in the 2020s and beyond.
