A biography of Professor Theodore Thomson Flynn — zoologist, Royal Commissioner, academic and father of Errol. Theo Flynn arrived in Hobart to take up a professorship at the University of Tasmania at the age of 28, where he built a reputation as a leading researcher in marsupial biology. His career took him from Hobart to Queen's University Belfast, where he held the chair in zoology, and eventually to California. Along the way he served as a Royal Commissioner, was awarded an MBE for wartime services, and in his later years managed his son Errol's estates in Jamaica.
The title says it plainly — Theo Flynn had a career of genuine distinction entirely independent of his famous son's Hollywood fame.
