Biographical History

Writer and novelist, Frank Dalby Davison won the Australian Literature Society Gold Medal for his novel Man Shy (1931). His interest in soil erosion and deforestation led to his stories Blue Coast Caravan (1935), The Wasteland (1935), and Children of the Dark People (1936). Davison was awarded a Commonwealth Literary Fund Fellowship in 1939-1940. He made political commentary through his literature "to reveal the Australian situation and to promote liberal democratic values." He saw literature as a means by which people might be helped to know themselves and their society as a necessary prelude to reform.
