Barry Geoffrey Andrews (1943-1987), university lecturer and literary scholar, was born on 13 February 1943 at Auburn, Sydney. He graduated from the University of New South Wales in 1963. He joined the Royal Military College, Duntroon, Canberra, in 1970 as a lecturer in English in the faculty of military studies maintained at RMC by UNSW.
