Ian Shaw works as a security consultant, regularly addressing seminars and conferences on the subject of terrorism, its history and its future.

His first book, The Bloodbath: The 1945 VFL Grand Final, was published by Scribe in 2006. Ian is passionate about social history, and stories that resonate well beyond the time and place in which they occurred, and which speak of broader characteristics we associate with being Australian.
