Born in Ljubljana, Slovenia, in what was then the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, he emigrated to Australia after the establishment of the Titoist regime in Yugoslavia in 1945. He became an accountant and marketing manager. In 1975, he was elected to the Australian Senate as a Liberal Senator for New South Wales.[1] He held the seat until his retirement in 1985. He died in 2008.[2]
