David Unaipon (Ngarrindjeri/Australian, 1872–1967) was a preacher, inventor and the first Indigenous-Australian writer to be published. Unaipon’s contribution to Australian society helped to break many stereotypes for Aboriginal Australians, and he is depicted on the fifty dollar note as recognition for his work. Native Legends was Unaipon’s third book. Ref: NLA; Wiki.
