Biografie Dennis C Micheal James

C J Dennis, Poet & Journalist was born in Auburn, South Australia, on 7 September 1876, he was christened Clarence Michael James, and afterwards given the confirmation name of Stanislaus. He preferred to be known as Den. After formal education in Gladstone, Laura and Adelaide, Dennis worked in a number of diverse positions, such as a solicitor's clerk, a member of the staff of the Critic (a weekly Adelaide journal), and a hotel barman. Already writing, a number of his early verse were published in theCritic in 1898. In 1901 Dennis rejoined the Critic staff, and became editor 1904-1905. A year later, in February 1906, together with A.E. Martin, he launched the Gadfly, a cheerfully malicious weekly journal. Towards the end of 1907 Dennis turned up in Melbourne, working as a freelance journalist; a friend introduced him to Toolangi, a small township seventy kilometres east of Melbourne. Toolangi was to become his home for most of the remaining thirty years of his life, a life spent working for various newspapers, mainly in Melbourne, writing feature articles, contributing frequently to The Bulletin and other magazines, and writing his poetry.
