NORMAN 'ED' BAILEY Born 5/11/1938

The SILENT GENERATION by Amber Petty

NORMAN 'ED' BAILEY5/11/1938 Ed Bailey is a creative legend of sorts. To many an amateur and professional actor (think Bernard Curry from The Castle). But long before he discovered his talent and passion for music and performing, he'd grown up as a child in Wales during World War 2. Ed recalls with clarity hearing bomber planes overhead, and the house parties his parents would throw for the locals, all with a heightened desire for unbridled dancing and joy. While many of us assume living during a war brings only pain and misery, Ed reflects on a surprising upside that united people. Now at aged 78, Ed shares the toughest side to aging as a creative and spirited man. The Silent Generation is sponsored by Freedom Aged Care. Series created and hosted by Amber Petty.
