Jack is a Goodwill Ambassador for U.N.H.C.R, a founding member of the Council for the National Museum of Australia and a life member of Stockman’s Hall of Fame. Jack Thompson was awarded an AM, “Member in the General Division of the Order of Australia”, for his services to the Australian film industry.
Born and bred in Manly, NSW, his father, John Thompson was a poet and broadcaster too. Jack went to the Northern Territory to work as a stockman when he was a teenager. It was there that he fell in love with the Australian bush and came to truly understand the poems of Banjo Paterson that he first learned as a schoolboy.
Jack is now busier than ever. He has a vibrant career as an internationally renowned actor, a pub in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales, and a charity foundation that provides funds for building projects by Indigenous Australians.
Jack and Banjo share a love of the Australian bush and the Australian character. In making a recording of Banjo’s poems Jack hopes they will bring Banjo’s fine, innocent, whimsical creations into the lives of many others, and introduce a new generation to the wisdom, the values and the humour that form one of the foundations of the Australian character.
