Rodney Croome

Rodney Croome is the spokesperson for the Tasmanian Gay and Lesbian Rights Group, and one of the founders of the Australian Coalition for Equality (ACE).

He fronted the successful campaign to decriminalise homosexuality in Tasmania, which until May 1, 1997 was a criminal offense punishable by up to 25 years in jail. He has also been the editor of Tasmanian literary magazine "Island". He was made a Member of the Order of Australia in 2003.

In July 2004 Croome publicly apologised to Graeme Murphy after falsely claiming that Murphy was gay. [ [http://www.rodneycroome.id.au/weblog?id=C10_23_1 Croome's blog - "Stirring up a gay row: Always triple check"] ]
