Ahmar Mahboob (aka Prof Nomad / Sunny Boy Brumby) was born of South Asian refugees and South Asian social, economic, and political oppression, and grew up in exile in the United Arab Emirates, where he was educated not just through conventional schools but also through relationships with artists, poets, journalists, politicians, and writers—all friends of his parents. With them, he had grown to identify oppressive practices in academia and governance. Working on issues of disempowerment and marginalisation and recently abandoning most colonial teachings, he draws on observation, analysis, and practice to develop both his understandings and his own practices and teaching. Ahmar has published almost a dozen books, and has twice received the President of Pakistan Award. He was named the field leader of English Language and Literature by Australia Magazine in 2019. Ahmar’s poetry was inducted into the Australia Poetry Hall of Fame in 2021.
