I have a PhD in history from the University of Melbourne. I have been a gay rights activist and journalist for many years. I am currently working as an advisor to a Member of Parliament and freelance writer on various subjects. I live in the Melbourne suburb of St Kilda, I am a member of the Australian Labor Party and I support the Melbourne Football Club.

My full biography and a variety of other things can be seen at my website (http://www.adam-carr.net). If you share my bizarre obsession with election statistics, you can visit my online archive, Psephos: Adam Carr's Electoral Archive (http://psephos.adam-carr.net).

The articles marked "rewrite" contain work by others but have been substantially rewritten by me. The articles marked "edit" are mostly the work of others but have been edited by me. The other articles are mostly or entirely by me (although they may have been partly or wholly rewritten by others since I last looked at them).
