A window to our past
|
Musician, activist and former Cabinet Minister, Peter Garrett AM, began his multi-faceted career at ANU in the early 1970s while undertaking a law degree and living at Burgmann College.
The second strand of Peter's career began when, as a student, he joined his first band, Rock Island. Peter later joined the Sydney-based band Farm, which later transformed into the famed Midnight Oil.
Peter's contribution to music and politics was recognised with an Honorary Doctorate of Laws in 2019.
