Tim Gadd

Tim Gadd is a Tasmanian-born furry.

Gadd was largely responsible for conception and creation of alt.lifestyle.furry in 1996.

Gadd has written furry stories for Katmandu (a comic published in the USA by Shanda Fantasy Arts) and his own Bob's Demented Alsatian with illustrations by Bob Drake, with whom he has also collaborated musically on three CDs (Medallion Animal Carpet, The Skull Mailbox and Other Horrors and Caudevalle). His non-fiction published work includes analysis of the portrayal of animals in popular culture.

Gadd wrote and co-performed five radio serials featuring a mixture of 'furry' and human characters between 1990 and 1996 ('The Breakfast Machine', 'The Magic Sunfish', The Adventures of Ramsey the Reindeer', 'West' and 'Clutter'), and hosted an FM rock show between 1979 and 2000. A regular con-goer in the 90's and early 00's, an inner ear problem now prevents him from traveling. He has a postgraduate degree in English and his poetry has also been published.
