BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES

Cara Beed retired in 1995 as lecturer in sociology and Graduate Advisor in the Education Faculty, Christ Campus, Australian Catholic University. After an earlier career in the 1960s and 1970s directing creative arts, play and leisure programs for arts organisations, travelling nationally consulting on community arts for the Australia Council, Cara returned to study. While completing her graduate studies, prior to 1985, she lectured part time at RMIT and sessionally at other tertiary institutions. Cara retired to devote her attention to writing.

Clive Beed retired in 1993 as Senior Lecturer in the Department of Economics, University of Melbourne. He lectured in the Faculty of Economics, University of Melbourne, from 1963, for most of the time in the Department of Economic Geography, where his main research interest was urban geography and planning. In 1983, his Department was involuntarily merged with the Department of Economics, and the teaching of economic geography was limited appreciably. Thereupon, Clive taught economics increasingly, and from the late 1980s became more interested in the methodology and philosophy of the subject and social science.

Cara and Clive married in 1961. Their married son lives in London and married daughter in Melbourne, each couple having a son. During the 1960s, the Beeds contributed much of their time to establishing and extending child care and pre-school education at Melbourne University. To add to these, the Beeds founded creative arts programs, as part of the Creative School Holiday Club, Play Arts Theatre and the Mobile Pottery Workshop. Their vision led to arts workshops throughout metropolitan Melbourne in the 1960s and 1970s. Municipal councils took up the challenge and with further funding developed arts and recreation programs from then on. An active sportsman, Clive played field hockey in Melbourne for 45 years, and is a life member of his former club. Both keen daily swimmers, Cara also 'deep water runs'.

Cara and Clive work together, sharing research, writing and publishing in areas related to their knowledge and experience. Both came from families with highly developed social and political consciousness. They combined this awareness with their tertiary education searching for personal faith on which to base their values and ethics for their family life, careers and writing. Their searches led them through a full gamut of political and religious parameters, during which they observed the reduction of personal autonomy amongst members of many groups. Cara and Clive are Honorary Fellows at the Centre for Applied Christian Ethics, University of Melbourne.

Since mid 2007, Cara and Clive have been working with the Theology of Work Project in Boston, USA which comprises a team of theologians, writers, educators and business people exploring the essence of the teachings of Jesus in relation to work.
