Michel Vimal Du MonteilAuthor Michel Vimal du Monteil is represented by the New Authors Collective agency. He was born in France in 1955, in a military family. In 1979, Michel arrived in Sydney on a 16-month assignment with the French Australian Chamber of Commerce. Austraia became his home from then on. Michel had a stint running a windsurfing and sailing school on Hayman Island in the Whitsundays. He worked at SBS TV in its early days. And he was a voice-over artist, a trade consultant, a translator, and a conference interpreter. In 1988, by fluke, he embarked on an investment banking career in Sydney, from which he retired in 2011. In 2013, Michel and his wife Annemieke settled in their new home at beautiful Emerald Beach, on the NSW Coffs Coast. Read More Read Less
