PETER F. SMITH, M.A., is a versatile, veteran teacher and an experienced student of history.

He is the author of a commemorative history of a leading Hunter Valley school and a contributor to an International Poetry Prize conducted by the University of Canberra. He has a master's degree in English from Indiana University. Smith lived in Maitland, where he restored a mid-Victorian heritage home and discovered his life-long passion for this unsung heritage city. Currently, the historian resides in Indiana with his wife, Jennfier, her son, Cole and their mini-schnauzer, Harry, where he continues to unearth Maitland's lost stories of its land, its buildings and its people.
