Wayne Mullen

Wayne Mullen is of Anglo Indian extraction. His family is from Mumbai, he was born in London and his background includes Burmese, Irish & English ancestors. Although he has a PhD about the archaeology of the Indian regional centre of Pune, he has decided that administration is far more exciting than archaeology (yes it is) & he now oversees the operations of the Australian Archaeological Institute at Athens, a national representative research body based in Greece but run from Sydney, where he lives. Added to this heady geographic mix, he has a partner from Goulburn and spends all his spare time in Newcastle, which, of all the places he calls “home”, is his favourite. To give a true picture of his diversity he is also left handed, gay & an ex-smoker.
