Brett Goldsmith
A lifetime resident of Melbourne and educated at Melbourne Grammar School, Brett Goldsmith is the eldest son of Melbourne restaurant/bar/nightclub/hospitality impresario, Brian Goldsmith.
Introduced to music by his aunt Olivia Newton-John, Brett spent much of his early adult life in pursuit of an informal musical education, both on the road and in recording studios. As a musician, songwriter and music producer Brett achieved 3 top ten hits whilst con-currently owning and operating some of Melbourne 's most successful (and occasionally notorious!) after hours establishments. Constantly in search of new modes of expression Brett turned his eye to photography only a few years ago with immediate success, firstly in the domain of fashion and most recently in more observational and interpretive genres.
Having made a career of knowing which way the cultural, business and social wind of Melbourne was blowing, Brett conceived an idea for Melbourne Artists, Icons and Achievers, a photographic documentary book, as a means to not only photograph 50 of Melbourne's most interesting subjects but to tell a story with a candid image & to bring to the attention of his fellow Melbournians & the rest of the world the talent & enterprise we have in our own back yard. This project is slated for release in early 2007.
When not writing, recording and producing music, consulting on hospitality venue development and taking photographs, Brett surfs.
