Dr Gregory Bryan

Dr. Gregory Bryan spreads his time between Canada, where he is a professor in a Faculty of Education at one of the country's leading universities, and his homeland, Australia, where he is an enthusiastic patriot.

Together with his brother, Barrie, in January 2011 Gregory Bryan became the first person ever to recreate Henry Lawson's 1893 450km walk from Bourke to Hungerford and back.

Despite declaring that he not only never wanted to walk in the Outback again but that he never wanted to see the Outback again, in July 2012, Gregory Bryan returned to Bourke with his brother. This time they became the first people ever to recreate Lawson's 1892 300km walk from Bourke to Toorale shearing shed and back.
