Tolkien 2005 Committee

Andrew read his parents' copy of The Lord of the Rings at the age of 8, shortly after reading The Hobbit, and followed shortly by The Silmarillion. He first became aware of the Tolkien Society when he was an undergraduate at Oxford, studying Physics. One of his fellow students got him involved first in the Oxford TS and then Oxonmoot in 1991. He became involved with the TS in an organisational capacity as the Amon Hen editor in 1997. He continued with that until leaving Oxford for Oslo at the very beginning of 2000. Currently he is the European representative on the TS committee.
