Full biographical data
Adrianos was born into a large family in the village of Neo Roino near Nafplion in 1935. He wanted to be a pilot, but lacked the means and social connections. He migrated to Australia because of limited opportunities in Greece. After arrival, he concentrated on quickly mastering English, as a way of escaping menial work. He eventually secured clerical work in the postal service. Over the years, he participated in a number of associations, including the Greek Community of NSW, and has been a prolific writer and published author.
