Eli Beverley Schack

Eli Beverley-Schack has lived in Sydney since he was 11 years old. A string of men’s hair salons suited his gregarious, extrovert personality. He and his wife travelled extensively throughout Asia and Europe, collecting memories. Now retired, Eli enjoys his rooftop apartment in Neutral Bay, looking across to the city he loves, and reading. Always reading. He still travels frequently with his new partner, and enjoys harbour-side walks, attending live music venues, independent theatre, and is a regular presence at cinemas across Sydney. Features, festivals, obscure art movies, National Theatre specials… everything Sydney offers. He walks to local libraries to select books appealing to his latest interests, whether it be history, travel, politics, biographies. And reviews of movies, journals and observations of his travels and photographs.
