Mudrooroo

Colin Thomas Johnson (21 August 1938 – 2019), better known by his nom de plume Mudrooroo, and also published under the names Mudrooroo Narogin and Mudrooroo Nyoongah, was an Australian novelist, poet, essayist and playwright. He is best known for his first novel, ''Wild Cat Falling'', which became a best-seller after its publication in 1965. His many works are centred on Aboriginal Australian characters and topics; however, there was doubt cast upon his claims to have Aboriginal ancestry. Provided by Wikipedia
