Over the past half century, I have maintained research collaborations with Australian scientists while pursuing an academic career focusing on scientific investigations of the physical properties of minerals at high pressures and temperatures. From 1970-1976, I was a member of the research faculty of the Australian National University; initially in the Department of Geophysics and Geochemistry and later in the Research School of Earth Sciences. In subsequent years, I have maintained connections with many laboratories in Australia in addition to the ANU, including those in Brisbane, Hobart, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney. The objective of this paper is to relate this history.
